I think so, if you want to get into Altec. It will probably cost more to piece it out than to find complete speakers. Might be worth waiting until a pair of 19's come by.
Just as an aside, I had new cabinets built using the drivers, horns, crossover and front plate from my 846. I had the bass box narrowed deepened and a bit taller to increase the volume. I turned the LF face plate on end so that I have mirrored speakers. The horns are in their own box akin to the 19 sitting on top. This gave more volume for the LF drivers and I believe a little deeper bass. The HF is also a little higher, closer to ear level. My next move is to build a model 19 crossover for them.
