auction alert North Carolina

**Old Guy** · March 30th, 2009, 07:08 PM

With my current health issues I can't go get these...and the seller absolutely will not ship or even skid them for pickup...

I want these so bad...

Anyway, should be 4 x 3154 in the boxes, most likely 299's on top.

One of the VIR is broken?

GovDeals.com: Speakers

There appears actually to be 3 of each, maybe 6 of the 3154's

Darn! In a month I'd be able to go get them. Don't think I can talk any of my NC crew into driving down to get them. =(
I could store them in my garage for you, but truck rental and gas just to go get them would be >$200

Too bad...

I see 3 horns and 2 cabinets...... what are these cabinets? Does each cabinet have 2 woofers? The rigging looks like what I had on my 9864A Engine.

I can't stand it when stuff like this is so far away :-(

I've never heard of this auction site, until now.

Talk to a therapist who is an Altec nut.

GovDeals does county and local governments. GovLiquidation does Federal.

Gotta admit, with that set, if you ain't top dog among your friends, you are at least in the running

How about those for left,right,center, and a pair of 604's for rears?

Bid on them OG!

There are reasonable ways to get them to you, you have a PM.

I don't think they look tall enough to be A700-XLF's, which are supposed to be 43.25" high. In looking at the dimensions of the VIT horns, Altec lists them as being 41.5", yet they are quite a bit taller than the cabinets pictured. Granted, I'm not sure how Altec was measuring the horns..... they list about a 60" depth, so maybe they got the measurements turned around since they're such a crazy shape.

To me the cabinets look like the 816VI

Darn it, now I want them too....see what you did!

Upon a close look, i must agree with ABGW.

The flybars seem to be right where the catalog pic shows the mounting points, and the dimensions/aspect ratio, particularly the depth seems about right.

It really helps having a 9864A in my living room to use as reference
