Looking for book on building Voice of Theatre

[AmazingOne]

I bought a book back in the Sixties explaining in detail on how to build the Altec Lansing Voice of the Theatre. I haven't seen it on Amazon. Does anyone know the exact title of the book and where I could get it?

thanks

Greets!

Don't know about a detailed explanation, but "How to Build Speaker Enclosures" by Alexis Badmaieff and Don Davis showed various plans including the A7's, which is available here: http://www.lansingheritage.org/images/altec/plans/1960's-lf-design/page14.jpg

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">This book appears quite often on Ebay..... However it normally goes for about $75 on up, from what I've seen. I got my copy from the neighbor across the street, when I was about 14 :-) .....it's what first exposed me to the Altec Lansing A7 :-)

Used paperback copies <$25 on Amazon.

You're welcome! The later 828, which is a bit better cab, is here: http://www.lansingheritage.org/images/altec/plans/1970's-lf-plans/enclosures11.jpg

$75 - up?! Wonder what my well worn binder taped reinforced '72 ed. is worth. I was 20 when it first came out and don't remember what I paid for it, but the '72 ed. paperback has a $3.95 USD/$4.95 Can. price tag, which according to this inflation rate calculator makes it ~ $15.73/$19.71 today: http://inflationdata.com/inflation/I...or.asp#results
