Altec marketed and advertised (at least) the Valencia as a home version of the A7/Voice of the Theater. Even though that was an advertising/marketing move, I still can see some validity in their claim. It has the 416 and the 806 and 811b and 800 hz crossover---same configuration as one of the versions of the A7--but put into a smaller bass reflex cab designed for home use. So, not an A7, but a "home version" of an A7--A7 drivers in a smaller ported box.... Not a big deal either way, I just thought the cabs were interesting. Haven't personally seen any home made cabs advertised as made of Russian Plywood with Aborite Finishing that were designed by someone at Radio Canada..... I'll bet Pavement would sound great cranked up on those (inside joke)
