I am mostly a lurker and reader here and see very little conversation about vintage speakers (pre 1985). I have owned Altec 604's for about a year now and love the hell out of them. Just wondered if there are other vintage users in this crowd?
I use Tannoy Arundel, 15in. coaxial ca. 1980. Redone the crossovers (without changing the values) with Mundorf caps, Solen Litz coils, Mills resistors and WBT posts. Refinished the veneer with burr walnut and they are stunning. They may not have the most «hifi» sound but they are coherent and musical, can listen for hours without fatigue.
Speakerlab SUper Sevens, made by Speakerlab in Seattle in 1979. 12", 10", 15" mid horn, and 4" tweeter per speaker. I moved to B&W 802N, my son put the Speakerlabs to his room, and every time I go to his room, he listens to hip-hop, and it sounds good even at very low volumes. thanks
