RE: Enclosure for Altec 416A, 802D?

Finding OEM cabinets for these is not as easy at it used to be. In the 1980's and 90's, I was finding them everywhere I looked. Now they're a little more scarce.

Cabinets that are completely original, never refinished in any way, and in top cosmetic condition will always be worth the most, and those from the 1950's + 60's (or earlier) are more valued than the later ones. Refinished originals, even if done to a very high standard, won't fetch as much from most collectors.

Depending on which cabinet style you choose, there are vendors on the big auction site that have reproduction decals and graphics available. I have actually resorted to making my own for some of my projects. It's not that difficult if you have any sort of graphics or photo editing software on your computer. I've used PhotoShop. When I have the files ready, I go to a local printer to have them done.
