In Reply to: RE: Another "crazy" e-Bay lisiting? Altec Model 19s. posted by Cleantimestream on November 22, 2015 at 14:27:04:
...a bit hyperbolic dontcha think? While the 19s are no paradigm of accuracy or neutrality, the K-horn is by far, the worst sounding speaker I've ever had the pleasure of owning. However, my biggest mistake was thinking their sonic flaws could be remediated thru use of modern HF drivers and fancy, non-stock xovers. WRONG! After many hundreds of $$ and countless hours of experimenting with various low/medium watt tube amps, I discovered their basic character is unchangable. And of course, YMMV.
