    OT: 3 Model 17's on ebay

    3 Model 17's in working condition. Bidding starts just over 2 grand. Maybe a LCR setup?

    3 Altec Lansing Model 17 Speakers, Altec 604-8G with 4 grills | eBay

    It makes me want to get my model 17 cabs out and use them. I just need to get them from storage to my house. Its only 1200 miles

    Is that a good price? Is the 604-8g is best driver in the 604 series?

    If you look at what a pair of 604G woofers go for by themselves, then add the 3rd woofer, you are basically getting the 620 cabs for free in this deal. Also I would assume you could get them cheaper. They have been on the bay for over a week.

    I personally prefer these over the M19's. I think both are a great speaker, but the model 17 just does more for me.
    Same goes for the 604G. It is my personal favorite 604 out of the ones I have heard.

    The model 17 and 19 are a last speaker for many people who own them. They never need anything else

    I recently acquired a pair of UREI 813As that use the 604. I look forward to hearing them in the near future. Unfortunately, the "helper woofers" are out being re-foamed. From all of the rave reviews, they must be something truly special.

    I run a pair of the Urei horn 604G drivers. They sound great. They either came out of a 813 setup or the non helper woofer version.

    I want to hear some 813's eventually. Let us know what you think about them once you get them back in action!
    From what I have heard they are some pretty awesome speakers

    Looks like these speakers sold. They sold for the opening bid of 2,200$.

    I hope to have the woofer back in a few days. Yesterday I ran across a UREI 6500 amplifier that has the BNC connector for the 813A's. It needs a little TLC, but it will be interesting to hear them with the amp designed to power them.
