    Don't know what woofer but the mid horn is a university sound model h600 and should have a t-30 driver. They also used that horn on their coaxes.

    the altec 1217a came with the same horn, but with the t-50 hypersonic driver...nice to see these with the correct plug in the horn mouth

    I think the woofer is a 418, if not a 421. The picture I was able to find online was definitely a MI speaker. A person that had a pair specifically mentioned the 418, Though.

    God what a piece of junk...must have been at one of Altec's desperate moments.

    First thing to do is junk the University horn..the mutilated cabinet might be savable...and the 418 is best as an instrument or vocal speaker...

    Shudder.
