Finally put the University UC-123 co-axials I got from Dave M several years ago at the CAF flea market into some cabinets.... Not half bad...


Altec 414s in the cabs next, with 802-8Gs on ALtec 32A horns on top....

The construction was pretty easy, I just put new front baffles on old Altec model 15 cabinets

I may even stain the baffles at some point...

Nice. Pretty soon you will have some type of Altec A5 setup, similar to what you had 10 years ago!

They're still around. The University UC-123s sounded pretty good on the open baffle with a 15" woofer crossed over at about 65Hz.
