Two-Way : Altec 288-16G 311-90 Horn with 6.5” Modern Woofer

I love the powerful midrange sound of VOTT’s 288 but I don't have the space for A5 cabinet.

In past years, I was thinking about possibility of combining vintage horn with modern woofer. I achieve it by designing crossover function in preamp.

Preamp : 12db/oct , 300Hz
HF power amp : 300B SE
LF power amp : 6550 PP (triode connection)

Sweet 1W glass is pretty enough to drive 288 !

The 1-minute video is large for website.

Horn and woofer are no longer bounded by traditional speaker crossover unit.
