New "old" speakers are home.
2 Attachment(s)
Hello Folks,
Here are my new speakers. Inspired by the Shindo Latour. Woofers : 416-8B Compressions : TAD 2001. Horns : P Audio. To me they sound like a more refined Altec 19, with deeper and fuller bass, and sweeter and more extended treble. Their image is huge and extremely focused. Big "American" sound with lots of weight and texture, but still very refined. During the last years I became an "Altec addict." https://www.audioaficionado.org/atta...2&d=1540807235 https://www.audioaficionado.org/atta...3&d=1540807253 Attachment 56982 Attachment 56983 |

Jerome, Congratulations on your new speaker system. I also love the sound of Altecs. I see you also have the C22 another favorite of mine. Enjoy.

Jerome.......Your speakers look incredible. I can imagine they produce an extremely satisfying performance.

Hi Jerome’
It has been fun to watch your audio journey unfold. I’m sure these are excellent sounding speakers. Here’s to many hours of enjoyable listening! Tom |
WOW those are great looking speakers, I am sure they have plenty of bass. Congratulations and post your impressions
|
Tom, David...
Thanks a lot. David: yes they actually give lots of bass. But most of all what is stunning with Altec drivers is the clarity and speed of the bass. |
Hi Jérôme, nice looking speakers, congrats!
Was it the same man who produced your old speakers? |
Thanks Bart,
Absolutely ! Built by Gilles. And my former speakers went to Belgium. You know their new owner. Stefan. |

Ha, they remained in the AA family! I do like the aesthetics for your current speakers more. Enjoy them! |
