Altec 802 on Film Tech forum VOTT's

[Altec Best]

Steve Guttag is a very wise man and well respected on Film-Tech.
The bonus is that he recognises the quality of Altec speakers, even when many others have been brainwashed into thinking they are bad.

Yup Nat ,he says that JBL's have a little higher SPL's but the sound quality goes to Altec even to this day.. But those posts were back in 2002 but IMO still relevant today. Cause most of those theater installs they work on are from that or earlier era...
