That's all it looks like. the site sucks so bad I can't get any real info from there. Looks like altec drivers, with different numbering scheme (but not that unique). ala ALtec 515-8G, 604, et al.???
Follow Ups:
Ed,Some of the products are, indeed, vintage, but some have been significantly improved. There is also one completely NEW woofer, and other NEW products in the works.
As for the website - were working hard to get it fixed. please forgive the inconvenience...

They say they are a ground up redesign and out perform the originals.

As I understand it the drivers are sourced from the fella at Great Plains who bought the Altec tooling when Telex killed Altec off.Now even if they were simply rebadged Altecs that would be aces with me.
Actually some of the drivers are improved over the late "EV" Altecs and some of the drivers are new designs. For instance the Iconic 704 has an improved magnetic structure compared to the late 604s with the goal of improved tonality.
