    Great to know another fellow M'sian. I've been an Altec user. Mine is 604 in 620A cabinet.

    Thank you. Nothing fancy...Just a modest set-up.

    The 604 portray a large and wide soundstage. As usual, Altec sounded great even with just a couple watts from a 2A3 SE.

    I have had a pair of Onken loaded with 416 and 511 with a pair of 902 before. After moving to 620A and 604, I prefer the later.
    The Onken excels in the vocal; probably due to the larger horn. However, I felt the 620A has a better balance on the overall music
    presentation.

    They look lovely. Who built the 620 cabinets?
