This will be a rare case where I disagree with Todd. The Radian diaphragms are far better that he Symbiotiks that came in the 808's. Both were designed by Jonas Renkus.
Renkus felt Altec intentionally sabotaged the Symbiotik.
I used literally dozens of them.

Thanks for the help.
Old guy, how much do the Altec 9444 amps weigh and where would they be shipping to OKC from?
Thanks,

I'm listening to my 890C's this afternoon, they do it too!
Altec knew what they were doing. Glen Campbell & Bobbie Gentry were a hell of a duet.
The Pascalite is probably the best compromise. The Radian handles more power.
My preference is the standard aluminum for home use. But hey, the Radian was designed by an ex-Altec employee. Renkus designed the 2 inch Alnico version of the Western digital driver for Altec. Had Altec brass seen fit to mass produce it, the 70's might have turned out differently.

I'm in Central Ohio. Near Columbus.

Considering the drivers, cheapest route is likely pick up a second crossover, and one amp.
Concentrate on amp quality. 35 watts/channel at 8 Ohms is enough.
