808-8A voice coil...?

[buick455]

Altec Lovers:
I have what I believe to be a
blown voice coil in an 808-8A HF compression driver from my Altec Valencia 846B speaker.

Where would you suggest that I purchase a replacement voice coil?

Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
bassreflex

The one and only source for genuine Altec replacement parts:

Great Plains Audio

Bill Hanuschak worked for the original Altec and today owns the tooling to make authentic replacement parts. And, he's a good guy to talk to!

Agreed!

Bill has redone HF drives and 416's for me with flat-out excellent results. Highly recommended. You might want to send in both drivers for remagnetization, too if they are alnico, not ferrite (I don't have my list of which is which with me at the moment)

How much for a pair of 15" woofer remagnetization?

Do you know how much for a pair of HF?

Thank you

Call or email Bill at GPA, his prices are reasonable and his work quality is good.
