Dear Forum Members! This is my first post.
Lately I have been searching information about the 15" Altec Biflex driver, and found it here. Fancy the idea of a 15" cone widerange alnico driver. Does anyone have listening impressions about this driver to share?
Qts should be .49, so could it eventually be suitable for a (large) open baffle setup?
The RCA LC-1A, the speaker of my dreams though I havenīt heard it yet, seems to be so difficult to ever get hands on a pair of these days... Comments on the sound characteristics of this driver are also much welcome!
At the moment I use a vintage Philips 12" driver made in 1953 for pro use in cinema. This "Klangfilm style" driver has a light conical papercone, large alnico motor and phenolic spider. Remarkable good resolution up to around 5Khz, but it lacks some level from 40-200Hz. I consider to have JBL LE5-10 aludomes mounted on them to increase the HF output.
I only play vinyl on an EMT 930 tt + 2A3 SET amp.
Thanks a lot in advance for any reply!
Best regards,
Thomas.
