Need speakers that can rock with just one watt? You found da place.

RE: Top-end response of Altec 288C/803B combo.?

Kloss, this is a bit off topic for the thread, but I have often wondered how classic horns such as the old Altecs compare to newer horns such as the Oris horns or Azuras. I am old enough that I heard many of the Altecs in stereo stores and night clubs but instead of pursuing those I have settled on newer offerings, specifically the Oris 150s with Fitzmaurice HT Tubas doing bass and with Fostex t900a bullet tweeters on top.

I hope I am not putting on the spot too much with this question, but if you retired from speaker designing and building what would you choose as your system to use for enjoying music? If you feel the question is an unreasonable one just don't bother to respond.

I dream of an America where a chicken can cross the road without having it's motives questioned.
