Here'a couple of Altec cabinet auctions that intrigue me.

I wish the A-700's weren't across the country....... I think I'd be buying.

These are much closer, but I don't think 210 cabinets are what I really want/need in my little livingroom, right now.

I saw those A7s, too. And very reasonably priced. Of course, the good deals are always all the way across country from me. I live in central Arkansas, and it's an audio wasteland here - good equipment rarely shows up here.

i hear you.i am in birmingham,al.altec used to be fairly plentiful around these parts before the company went out of business.it has dried up since,due to flippers,negative publicity by former competitors,and believers/hoarders(such as myself,a believer since my first known exposure in 1976).i do not know of any location in this area that has had anything newer than 817/mantaray/multicell configurations,which precludes any trap style systems such as these cabinets or the dts systems.if anybody knows more please share as i would like to know also.by the way,to my ears,those dts systems rule!!!

C.DARRELL FREEMAN, what is a trap style system and dts?

I don't know about a trap style system is, but DTS systems were centered around The Engine in our 9864-8As.

hey all,sorry about the lack of clarity on my part.the trap system reference was to the speaker systems using a trapazodial style of cabinet such as the dts645a-f,dts945a-f,dts642a-f,dts942a-f,etc.the dts reference was to digital technology systems as offered by altec lansing.

Thanks guys, that is pretty cool. Sure isn't much talk or information around about latter Altecs. I hope I find a few more churches converting to the better sound of Bose sometime.

Yes, I saw that....... I even checked with a friend that drives a truck to see if he was going out that way......didn't sound promising.
