Super Size Me!...Altec 819?

"ALTEC designed for 4 - 15" drivers, marine ply cabinets that weighed in at half a ton a piece, stood 6 feet wide, almost 4 feet deep & a yard tall. Each of these woofers carried four 15-inch JBL LANSING D140 loudspeakers (what happened to the 515's?) . The tweeters consisted of 4 x 2-Cell Mantaray MR64's & 2 x 10-Cell Altec Horns. For many years throughout Southern Africa this system was collectively referred to as the WOODSTOCK BINS. They became regular features at most of the Township & open-air Wits Campus & Folk festival Music events...often free-of-charge - the genuine article from HANLEY SOUND INC. of MEDFORD MASS, USA..."

Crossover Input

An awesome system in at least a small auditorium/cinema size room when combined with an appropriate 'sub' system such as four 8184s or similar.

GM


GM, as always your input is much appreciated...In my case...where would you recommend the upper to MF MR64 horn and lower to 8184 Sub crossover points and slope be if using 515b's in 817 cabs? Also, do you have a favorite driver for the MR64, 288c, 299, or?
Thanks in advance:scratch2:
