I was leaning that way.. but there might be a hitch.. Looking at a spec sheet (too lazy last night to go to my shop with a tape measure) The Altec is just a little bit shy of 12 inches.. .. Using a square, it looks like there isn't enough depth in the Regency cabinet to handle the overall length of the 604 series.. Don't think I want to go cutting a hole on the inside of the cabinet to accommodate the HF driver of the 604.. btw the inside back wall of the cabinet is part of the baffle for the side ports. So this probably could be done. Once I get the cabinet and the speaker together I'll do a dry fit.. So it might be the Royal Cabinet after all that gets used. With it's folded horn design it should still produce plenty of bass even as a center channel.. it does now with the TRX15.. It sounds good, it just doesn't sound good WITH the two altecs.
