FS: Altec 604-8Gs

Recommended Posts

I have 2 Altec 604-8Gs from mid-70s 3577A/Stonehenge III Studio Monitors for sale.  They have been overhauled by Jams Audio in Nashville to new condition using Great Plains Audio cones and diaphragms.  The original crossovers are also available.

The cabinets were damaged by water and mold and I consider them unusable.  You can have them for a nominal fee, but you must come to Chattanooga to get them. 

 

I will ship them bolted to a sheet of plywood and enclosed in heavy boxes, or you may come to Chattanooga to get them.  I am also willing to drive 100 miles in any direction to meet you. 

 

Asking $1900 for the pair, plus shipping, crossovers negotiable. 

 

Contact me through the Forum and I'll send additional contact information.

Do I see orange in the throat in the one picture? if so these aren't your everyday 604 8g's. These are fine speakers, look what Jean Hiraga did with them and the comments about them in the high end Munich show. Some Altecs are very fussy creatures, get the whole thing right and they can be simply be amazing. Its like one person said, these are like owning a Ferrari....

I noticed your signature….Ducati 1098?

 

I lost track of this thread.  I have a 748 with an 853 bore kit and more I don't usually admit.  The X was jealous of my spending on Rosetta.  The 1098 is considered a Testastretta Evoluzione, narrow head evolution, engine.  Narrow included valve angle, actually.

Can you believe somebody has done a CAD drawing of the cabs? (has a link which I did not click on)

That sure looks like a cool project for someone. 

 

J. Easley also did the Cornwall and LaScala drawings floating around here.

 

I would trust the link.
