Little ones in the ever changing Sansui SP3000's.
Think the 6" mid will be dropped out next and let the PP15's run up to 2K where the horn would take over.

Nice!! :thmbsp:
I just added some as well
Can't help but wonder if these came from where I think they came from.

Welp, it depends on from where you think they came :scratch2:
Odds are, not what you're thinking (or is suspecting a better word
)I got them off ebay. Came from a theater in Ocala Florida. I paid $199 TOTAL for the both of them in working condition.
They do however, have the incorrect driver in them. They do not have Klipsch K43's or K33's but rather a RCF driver.

Fortunately, there is a guy on the Klipsch forum (thank you Speakerfritz!) who has a pair of K43's and has an interest in these drivers for another project he's working on.
Seeing as it was HIS eyeballs that first brought this ebay listing to my attention, I wanted him to have first crack at these drivers so we're going to swap them out.
Hopefully he'll get them out soon and I can have them in time for a 4'th of July 90'th birthday party for my wifes uncle.
I've already got them up/running and they sound pretty good....but these are 8 ohm drivers and I need 4 ohm. My understanding is that can screw up the performance of the drivers somehow? (over my head)

Altec "mini A-7" mono built-in.
I just finished re-working this one. It's a built-in cabinet in my office incorparated in to my equipment shelving. I originally built it out of parts from a scrapped Valenica cabinet saving the front. But I just re-did the low-freq driver in the VOT style. I kept everything looking "utility grade", which I always loved about the old A-7's and such.
I still need to add some screws to the top, but I just gave it a brief listen and the bass is much better now. It usally runs with a C-4, MC-30, and Empire TT. But all of that is down for freshening at the moment, so I just hooked up one channel of my stereo system and played a few mono Lp's. 50's jazz in true mono can be sublime!

My new horns
I bought these wood horns from a popular auction site ... and then I bought a pair of selenium drivers from partsexpress .... and honestly ... it's effin amazing. So forward ... so live ... I had no idea that horns could make music come to life so much.
