Re: 755 - what drives the value?
Well, I had a 728B pass through my hands not too long ago. It had an amazing full sound for a single full range driver. Panamaniac came over and did some measurements. I'll see if I can find the results, or maybe you can ask him to post them, along with his impressions.....
Re: 755 - what drives the value?
Here's the whole thread with pix and measurements.....
Re: 755 - what drives the value?
Thanks A.A. I remember those measurements and that driver. Something special indeed. A very clean driver. Worthy of cult status.
Re: 755 - what drives the value?
Makes me wish there was an Altec users group annual meeting or something where people could bring some of their speakers and we could have a listening party...
Has anything like that ever been organized?
Re: 755 - what drives the value?
I'll host one in North Dakota. Please RSVP before winter. LOL :)

Very true 427, I laughed for 5 minutes reading your remark. :)

Yeah that thing really was something special. If the seller had a pair instead of just a single, I'd have been scrambling to figger out how to round up the necessary thousands of dollars to be able to keep them.

Well, if you ever make it to central NC, you'd be welcome to listen to my little collection. I have a few different setups quite easily interchanged....

He does, he does! And a wide array of beer and cigar choices, too.

Does it get any better than that? Maybe a bass pond in the back? :)
