    I have a pair of altec cabinets that i think are 605a's . Does anyone have a picture of them for me to verify? They are 20dx20wx27h.
    they are a walnut finish with wooden legs.
    Thanks

    You're welcome!

    OK, AFAIK the 605 didn't come along until '57, though it's not in the catalog, and the Iconic cab's dims you point to are a bit different plus is designed for a 12", so the burning Qs are what cab is this and what drivers are really in them? Inquiring minds want to know........ time to open them up.

    Thanks GM it looks like what is on the cover of the 1954 Home Catalogue top row small one on the right... Unfortunately these cabinets have no electronics or #'s on them . Someone wrote "altec 605a display" on the bottom of one of them, so thats what I am basing my information on.
