Where to begin.. I have these speakers that I really like a lot even though they are much to large for the space I have. I have spoken to Bowtie427 on several occasions via pm at AK and he suggested getting in touch with all of you guys for a chance at them first.
I will keep them over parting them out as I have no real need to get rid of them just would prefer something a little more user friendly. As they stand if I cannot find anything else they will go to the garage for neighborhood concert speakers. What I would like to do is find someone who will use them without parting them out.
I would prefer to trade than to sell outright as I have no way to really value these other than for their parts which is dificult because these are not standard drivers and I dont really want to do ebay and shipping, etc..
I would like to trade for a pair of 604-8?'s in cabinets with crossovers and/or tube equipment. If you are interested please contact me. My username is the same at AK if you want to contact there that is fine as well.
8000 series boxes, 8154 wanted... 8256 for trade....
I've got 2 8154's in good shape, and 2 8256's with XO cutouts, in fair shape.
I'd like to standardize on the 8154.
If anyone is reasonably near PHL (try me, I drive!) and looking to trade 8154's for my set of 8256's, get in touch.
Cosmetics of your 8154 are less important to me, than structural condition. I will likely clean/paint etc. them.
If they are already e.g. minty, I can sweeten the deal with a selection of whatever else I have left to trade out, Altec or otherwise.
Would also be interested in knowing about your other 8000 series boxes for sale/trade.
I've got non-altec, and a fair amount of non-audio trade fodder (inc music gear, instruments, etc.) around at the moment.

Up for sale is a pair of early 515 Drivers. RWB Hollywood. Very Early. Physically in near mint condition. They just need a re-cone as the cone has some rubbing issues. I'm away for the weekend so pictures will come later.
No phishing here....
Re-coned roughly 15 years ago. Worked great when put away but sat in dry storage and one works great and the other rubs. It will either need a re-cone or someone more skilled than I. Both speakers impedance around the 15ohm range. Thanks so much for looking! 1100 shipped.

Hey Folks,
I have decided to let another Altec user have my Milano's. They are in great shape and come with the matching console. I ned the $'s and the space to finish my 1235c's
I have absolutely no idea how to ship these, so I think a local PU or possibly a meet up is the only option.
I have them Posted on he Local cl at $1300, on audiokarma at $750, and would lke the same $750 here.
