The A7 offered by Altec Lansing Technologies Inc is assembled from original 511B horns made at the Oklahoma City plant, HF drivers and woofers from Great Plains Audio, a "spec" 828 cabinet, and a spectacular crossover network designed by Charlie Hughes. The crossover is at 960Hz and the system sounds better to the today's ears than any original A7. Everyone here would like the way they sound. The problem is Altec wants an arm and a leg for them! Price has limited sales to the point of extinction. Chalk one more up for corporate America against Altec Lansing. -------------------- Experience is Knowledge

Thank's for clearing that up. Till now, lacking a single user review, I doubted their existence in production form.-------------------- bfish "We're going ALL the way, till the wheels fall off and burn!"
