I say skip the Spanish name home stuff and go for the more pro models.
Model 15 is a good target.
414 woofers and 802s is good (preferably not with 511/811 horn, if you ask me).
414s kill on Starker Bach cello, although the original LP set is worth more than the woofers.
The best Altec is DIY with Altec parts.
Larry Moore has been playing with an Altec rig. Since you have his amp, ask him how that worked out.
