Depends on the sensitivity. As long as they're more sensitive than the 755's byt at least a couple db, they should work well.good idea?
Alan, that KP-500 sure brings back some memories. Agree about the EPI tweeters as fine sounding specimens.
Altec build quality has spoiled you.From what I saw I wouldn't bother with them again, no matter what they're supposed to sound like.

i loved those super tuner pioneers. and the antitheft bracket. i see you still have the loudness switched on alan.
well guess i'll find out what they'll do. i remember they were nice at low volume. they should just fill in some of the upper range.
i opted out of the red ring pair because the dome on one of them appears to have a funny looking spot in it. found these instead.

these are the same model i had before and i know what they sounded like. plus they were 10 bucks cheaper.

That's a nice early one too! Note that it is missing the little round yellow "supertuner" logo that would be found on the tape door of the later models. Somewhere around here i have the 8-track version of that deck, the TP-900.i loved those super tuner pioneers. and the antitheft bracket. i see you still have the loudness switched on alan.

I have 1 8-track tape, Best of Jim Nabors. I consider it a complete experience, leaving me with no desire for 8-tracks or anything even remotely related to them.Originally Posted by Phil-G

i remember one christmas in the 90s, my boss (an old cuban guy) had me repair his 8 track player and his favorite elvis chrismas tape. spent two days of shop time just fixing the tape. had to take it apart and fix a bad part in the tape. i cut and spliced it till there was only one verse missing. and they never missed it. plus i had to iron out about three feet of wrinkled tape that got sucked into the player. he was so happy, not so much his wife

Back in the day you just shoved an empty folded up Zig Zag package in the slot with the tape and called it good.i remember one christmas in the 90s, my boss (an old cuban guy) had me repair his 8 track player and his favorite elvis chrismas tape. spent two days of shop time just fixing the tape. had to take it apart and fix a bad part in the tape. i cut and spliced it till there was only one verse missing. and they never missed it. plus i had to iron out about three feet of wrinkled tape that got sucked into the player. he was so happy, not so much his wife
Elvis Christmas tunes on 8-track................................. i think some would have us banned from an Altec forum. My Altecs are all nervous just watching me type the words. SSSShhhhhhhh, i hear somebody whimpering "No Daddy! No! Not that!"

I remember a few coming unraveled. Couldn't fit the tape back in.
I used to make a few bucks repairing Echoplex tapes with blank 8 track tape scavenged.
Your neighbors called. They like your music.
I don't recall all the details, but these were truly poorly put together. The wiring even had wire nuts, although I admit, those could have been a later "modification".Altec build quality has spoiled you.
