At long last, I am acquiring some parts for a two-way Altec build. I have 32a horns on the way, 414A in the house, 614 cabs still needed, and a pair of B&C DE250 8 ohm or Altec 902 8 ohm. Here are a few quick questions:
* your preference for 1st order crossover point 5-8,000 hz and capacitor type(oil or film)/brand (414 runs wide open, only the cap on the highs)
* Which driver have you preferred of any of the following: 802D or G, 902, B&C 250, or Emilar EA175
I'm in La Crosse, WI, and I'm looking for some 614D cabinets ready to go, but I'll seek out a builder if I can't find a pair.
I'm hoping this system will be a worthy substitute in my 8x14 room. I used to have A7 and at another time a split 210 cab w/ EVHR9040A horns. Want the sound without the size.
Thanks for your thoughts!
