Those are the brackets that make a 511 an "A" version, they are very much Altec.

or Altec made? I don't recall seeing any mounts like these before.

Are those not the same brackets as available with the 511B also?

Cal, my WAG is that it really depends on the time period.Quote:

AFAIK, there was a point in time where if you asked for/ordered a 511A you got a 511 with an undrilled mounting flange and that fancy bracket assembly included.

If you asked for/ordered a 511B you got a 511 with 6 holes drilled in the mounting flange and no bracket.
My further WAG is that eventually there was only the 511B, and the fancy bracket assembly became an optional accessory for it as the factory sheet shows.
That all makes sense, thanks.
Those diaphragms have been used and have been hot.. Yeah I would say some serious cleaning went into those before the Pics. I also agree about showing stuff with the objects listed, that are not included is just going to cause confusion.
Thanks for posting the links to the literature. Might get the project off the back burner.
