RE: Altec 828 vott

Yes i like the unbraced box better.
When i buy the first altec a7 it was because of the sound i find them ugly and big
but the sound was very good.
(that was then now i find it a very attractive speakers) i have now the a5 with multi cell horns
that is also a very big upgrade from te 511 or 811!

When i buy the a7 i listen a time to them and i read on the internet that the cabinet must be braced and must more dead, mass loading or double walls for better sound.
So i did this and i found it a good in the first place i liked it it was more hifi.
But after a while i missed the musicality the sound that made me buy the a7 was gone.
all was good notting wrong but the spontaneity wasn't there anymore
it was all perfect but a little death and to polite
Then i buy some empty original cabinets and put in the drivers and it was back
the barking the screaming the air the colour all you don't want in hifi
but sounds more like real music.

But that is only my experience, ears , taste, electronics ,room acoustics and the combination of that
don't get this as the truth and if you brace it mass load it and you find it better
what can i say if you like it it is good and the way you must go.
enjoy the music on your own way.
There is no best for anyone.
and experimenting your own things is the only way.
