Pair of Altec 616 duplex woofers in good working condition. These were checked out by Northwest Speaker and given a clean bill of health.

They have original cones and the original diaphragms.

The 616 is a hybrid of a few different speakers. It uses the Altec 411 frame, with a JBL LE15 AlNiCo motor and cone. The HF driver is an AlNiCo 806a.

These sound very similar to the Altec 605. IMO they sound better.

Right now the drivers are not in cabinets. I could include some 612c clone cabs for an extra 100 bucks. They are the cabinets in the pictures.

I am asking 450$ or reasonable offer for the drivers. I would also consider trading for other Altec drivers, cabs, or horns. What do you have?

Hello,

Does anyone have a decent face plate and some meters for an Altec 9440A amplifier? Would also consider an entire amplifier too. Let me know?

thanks

As many of you know, I am looking to build a set of Altec small format field coil drivers. I have a cast pot 802 that I dismantled to get all of the dimensions from to give to Hentai in Japan for magnetic circuit simulations and to design a new pole piece and coil.
I was dismayed to find that this unit has been damaged,someone has damaged the front of the phase plug behind the bug screen and used way to long screws to hold the diaphragm on. This bent the retaining plate very badly. So my search for one matching driver has turned into two of the old cast drivers. Either 802 or 808, doesn't matter as the pots are the same. I have limited funds, but I'm open to trades. Does anyone have some old drivers? Don't need to be pretty, I can clean them up. Actually, I'd rather not cannibalize a good looking set if I can help it.
Thank you

On Edit: Looks like I found a very early 808-8A driver, SN 00954, should be here by the end of the week. Willing to trade for an 808/802 cast pot driver.

I have a pair of Altec Cabinet 828 ? Custom Built by skilled cabinet maker using Baltic Birch Ply 3/4? for sale.

It is in excellent condition, I recently built this cabinet for my personal use and I hardly used it. I ran this with 515B/416-8B, 288C/802D drivers and 1005B/511B horns.

Considering the size and weight, local pick up only. I live in Columbus, Ohio. Please let me know if you have any questions or more pictures.

Asking Price - $400

Thank you,

These are the Don Kelle designed HR9040 fiber glass horns designed for the Altec large format drivers. The flare end is 39.5 x 18 inches! Due to there size, I'm not interested in shipping. They are BIG! I received these in a bit of a lop sided trade to help my old friend's widow out. If I could get 250.00 or trade for some interesting Altec gear or even tube gear I'd be happy.
Think of the block party you could have!

looking for a pair of altec 421's and a pair of 811b's. The 421 are to be reconed, so a blown pair is fine.
thanks

Hello,

I have the bass horn parts from a pair of Magnificents that I need to find a home for (15" woofer). Very good condition, and perhaps perfect for that project you have in mind. I imagine these are fairly complex to make on your own. I'm in the south SF Bay Area if you want to pick up locally. If you are not local and seriously interested, then I can box up and check shipping cost. I really don't want to recycle these....

WTB Altec MR II 564 single horn.

I picked up one on Reverb.com and need to find a mate for it.

Thanks

WTB Altec 3000 tweeter in non working condition, pair or single. Thanks Mar

Looking for a mate for my single 288G driver. Am interested in a single 288G, or 291B, with or without a diaphragm.

The driver does not need to be in perfect shape, as long as the VC gap looks good
