    Tell the seller he is a dumbass, and a liar to boot. They are not Altec,not Voice of the Theater, not a single Altec component, and were not used at Woodstock unless he used the wood from one of the outhouses to build them. Maybe "Voice of the Garbage Dump"?

    There is no way to tune for 15" speakers as he claims, there are hundreds of 15's and all are different.

    Those are either JBL's or copies/inspired-by.

    Mid bass at best and I think too small. Guessing 70-ish, and that top cutout is for an EV 8HD. Which means they are maybe 24 inches wide. Kind of a scaled down JBL 4560. If a clone of anything, likely the Kustom Pro3w.

    I would expect nothing else from that geographic location.
