OT: Stan Miller founder Stanal Sound - Stanley Screamers

I came across this link of Stan Miller and thought it was interesting how he formed "Stanal Sound" and the Altec Lansing "Stanley Screamers". He obviously was a big Altec fan as he owned his own Altec Franchise in the 1970's.

Very cool AB! Thanks for posting.

That's a nice mini biography.

No wonder Neil always sounds so good.

I came across it when I was researching the set that I found. Turned out to be a pretty good read. This was where I first learned of the Pink Floyd connection.

Your Welcome ! I thought it was quite interesting so I posted it. He was a big Altec supporter until they went belly up.And then was forced to use JBL's

This was named the Flying Junkyard. For The Pink Floyd "The Wall" shows. These are Stanley Screamers.The bass bins are SS-1120-R's and the very Large Manta Rays MR42 with 291-16B's I think ,and banks of 4 UHF drivers.

I have a pair of Stanley Screamers with dual 604's and a large horn on top with a 291 I think on it. Originally tri-amp only, but somebody put an EV 3 way crossover in them. I have had them for a year or so, but never fired them up yet.

Wow, been a long time since I've been on here :-/

edit: changed 288 to 291
