Hi. This is my first post, so please forgive me if it is on the wrong message board. I have an Altec 211 cabinet for sale in Chicago. Can anyone use it??? Hoping to get $100 for it instead of chopping it up and burning it, which would break my heart. Came from auditorium installation. Very good shape - No drivers. Please email [email protected] if interested. Sincerely, Andy

Wish you had a pair of them....

I was this >< close to buying this cabinet last friday, but decided against it at the last minute. It's huge and my living room is small. Yet, here I am..... tempted all over again :-)
You're right. It's definitely a "want" rather than a "need"....... You just don't see them as often as a 210.
Interesting that they would make 2 variations of the same cabinet.

Instead of having 2 couldn't you just cut it in half and get 2 pieces of plywood and some paint???
I thought I saw this done in a old SP article that was saved to someones pic gallery, not sure of who's though....

My idea was to run one woofer on the left channel, and the other one on the right. I figured it was cheap and reversible.
I would run a plate amp.
Any progress selling the cabinet Andy?
