    Can't imagine many hobbyists are looking to build 6 ft3 ceiling enclosures, i doubt any drawings exist unless somebody has actually laid hands on a factory box and drew it up.

    Wally what are your exact plans for your build ? I have to agree with Bowtie on this one. Not the best way to utilize a pair or more of 604's IMHO....

    I thought about 5191 with Altec and 18" subwoofer. But finally - Altec 620B������

    620B alla Model 17's are a good choice ! Another good choice you might want to consider is the Stonehenge III ! Todd has plans for the Stonehenge III that has some slight modifications. He has more info on them, send him a PM if you are interested.

    I thought 620B is rather Model 18... I like old wide cabinets more������

    It is, sort of.

    620B was also sold as a monitor system, has a natural finished oak baffle and model 17 style grill.

    Model 18 has a black painted baffle and more simply constructed grill with semi-transparent cloth.113623211

    Re: Altec 5191-X plans

    I really like the sound of the 604.. They sound amazing but I always felt like they needed some extra bass like the Urei 813 has.. But I found some plans of 620B and the Stonehenge on an audio site. The internal volume in cubic ft should be around 9cu.ft to 10.5 cu.ft for optimal performance. YMMV
