    Please forgive this newbie's questions if they've been discussed already.

    I just bought a pair of Altec Lansing Model Three's at a yard sale. The previous owner stated that the tweeters are good but the woofers need replacing.

    Can anyone tell me
    1/ when these speakers were made
    2/ were they pretty good when first produced
    3/ where can I buy replacement parts.

    Many thanks!

    Probably made in 1980 or earlier. The "odd" numbers were discontinued in 1980.

    Woofers are no longer available, but if they only need to be re-foamed, you might check with a local speaker repair shop.

    Or you can refoam them yourself.

    I bought and refoamed my 411s myself with excellent results.

    Check with simplyspeakers.com
