Default Altec Lansing Voice of the Theatre

How many Altec Lansing V.O.T.T. fans we got here?
What kind of stuff do you have and are you happy with it?

This modified A2 system should be up and running in a few
months. It's been awhile............but it will should sound
much better than it ever did. Time will tell.

Don't worry Guy,

I think they're a thing of beauty.

Except the colour. Long live gray!

When I had mine upright, facing the wall in my garage, my buddy thought they were a couple of industrial furnaces.

Really nice sounding furnaces.

You're going to have to hurry, you have only till March to get those all up and running.

first-that link is illustration of nature of my "ugly" comment;

second -if you ,or any else ,can't see link with Altec Voice Of the Theater ,I can't help him;

Voice of the Theater is more than one or few different models of loudspeakers made by one manufacturer;

this is in fact way of thinking in engineer field,resulting in many different products from several factories,offten showing astounding similarities,if not sort of industrial espionage

in middle of that page ,you can see picture of Iskra made cinema box for Alnico 12" Iskra low driver,and on top of it Altec's 811B horn wit matching Altec driver........

I saw more than one in my life,along with Westrex 800 or 1KHz xover;
also-some of boxes were original Westrex (or "just " Altec,with Altec bass.....


anyway-enjoy in yours nice VOT specimens......

First, sorry........just don't get the ugly comment - why you made it or what you're talking about.

Second, When you said : "if you ,or any else ,can't see link with Altec Voice Of the Theater ,I can't help him"......... In this country we would say "anyone" else...................and at the end of the sentence, one might use the word "them" instead of "him".

Third, while "Voice of the Theatre" may refer to "more than one or few different models of loudspeakers made by one manufacturer" ............as you can see in the title of the post, I was specifically referring to Altec Lansing Voice of the Theatre speakers. We're under the "Loudspeakers" category right?

What country do you live in dude?

P.S. Sorry I missed the "Altec's 811B horn wit matching Altec driver"......... At first glance, there didn't seem to be much Altec VOTT speaker related equipment in the link. I probably passed over it pretty quick and missed the 811B horn. My mistake......

Look to your left dude - I've got a 1995 tourist guide to Yugoslavia; if I rip all the pages out it'll probably be up to date...
