    Carmels?

    This is a new one on me. I don't remember seeing them before. Looks like fir ply baffel and lumber core cabinet?

    Altec Carmel Stereo Speakers
    Last of the World's Great Human Beings, well maybe one of the last? OK, just an ordinary slacker then.

    Looks like plywood to me. Look at the upper right. They're thick plys, but still plys.

    Anyway, some specie of 414 woofers eh?

    I have a pr of these cabs with 605As, cira 1963. I had them refinished and replaced the grile cloth. The cloth is wrapped around the baffel board and is not sealed. Since I ported my cabs ; i caulked the baffel inplace .

    They are 414Z I'm pretty sure, most gold color ones of the 414 were the Z model 16 ohm's
