Aren't these things super rare?

Nope, but they are nice.
Price on most those items seem to be pretty fair; no steals there that I see.

Andy, again I find myself broke at the wrong time. :cry: Got a photo of those Altec's by any chance?

They prolly look something like the guys in this auction. I'm not real up to date on these guys; their value varies withthe driver complement. Dgwojo is very knowledgable on these as he has several sets.
Really!! :yes:

Andyman,
The ones on the eBay auction just need to have the 808 drivers converted to 802's by switching the diaphrams to aluminum tangential's and they'd be awesome for home use, the price seems a bit high for no grills, grills can fetch $250/pair since those are MDF cabinets that came with metal frame grills. Speakeing of A7's, I see Altec up'd the price to over 12 grand/pair;
Altec Legacy A7's

Regarding the pair on CL, seems they used 16 ohm crossovers and horn drivers with 8 ohm woofers, 416Z woofers would be a better choice for that set-up, based on condition, $800 might eb a deal, need pictures and inspection for a better guesstimate, Dave. :yes:
