    Re the ones with white glue - the vents in the caps look too small. Did Altec ones vary in size over time or for different models?

    I don't remember the details and don't have access to my tech 'library' ATM, but do a forum or Google search, it's here somewhere.

    Yes, they grew over time due to increasing power handling.
