Hi All...
I have just purchased a set of Altec 604 8K's from Great Plains Audio and need to obtain cabinet designs for them. I have approached Iconic (who I understand make Cabinets) but they seemed reluctant to supply them ....I did offer to purchase them too....! It would be impractical to have them made in the States and then ship them all the way to Western Australia (where I Live)
I used to own a pair of 604 8G's many moons ago and never thought I would own another pair ..... I stupidly sold them and here (in Australia) they seem as rare as hens teeth and dont seem to come up second hand
I know Altec had a number of official designs back in the 70's and have searched various web sites trying to obtain them.
I am happy to pay a reasonable sum for the correct plans and maybe some advice on the best way to go about it. I know I need to use a hard timber that will not flex and am considering a local timber called Jarrah which is a Hardwood sort of like a reddish mahogony....
I hope SOMEONE can assist.... I would be very grateful
Regards
Tom Keatley
