RE: Smaller, Vintage Altec Lansing Speakers

Way back in the day, about 1979, I designed a cabinet for the Altec 604-8G coaxial speaker. They were for a disco nightclub. When the cabinets were done, I set them up (four of them, stacked two high) in my girlfriend's apartment, and powered them with her little 25 wpc Sansui amp. Pink Floyd sounded awesome.

I'm not normally a fan of 15" 2-way speakers, but these were killer. My point is simply to say that you might try to find a couple of 604s and build a couple of cabinets. They won't be small, but they'll sound great.
