Electro Voice Royal 400 w/18" woofers, Minneapolis

That is a helluva lot of T350s in that wall of sound. A lot of everything. I assume JBL too, what are the smaller ones?

I've had a couple dozen T35s pass through my hands over the past 45 years, the worst were in Heresys, the best were in North American Sound Squires, and I think the magic is in the crossovers. I also read somewhere (here probably) that voice coil quality control determined what designation they got. The best became T350, the rest became T35. Any truth to that?

From what I can tell the mid drivers look to be some variant of the JBL LE-5

Yeah who’s buying these?!?!

lol I’m the guy selling these. Thanks @alteclipsch for making a post about these. If anyone has any questions about them I’d be happy to answer what I know. Side note I sold a pair of Altec 9844A’s to a pretty well known prince producer/engineer. I’ll keep him nameless but has been part of a lot of really cool recordings. He wanted a vintage pair of monitors in his house so sold him the altecs and I helped him carry them into his house and he had these EV’s. I ended up buying them from him before I left. I really wish I had a heated garage and more storage space to work on these.

When it comes to EV i can only parrot and push Judge Judy's philosophy "if it doesn't make sense, it's not true".

Judge Judy must not have been a biologist before she was on the bench

Hell, when I was young, I commuted between Minneapolis and Boston every 3 weeks for three years when I was dating my GF. You'd only have to do it once.
