    Hi,

    I have been offered a few Altec cabinets. The cabinets are NIB without speakers. Both the 8827 and 8156 are the ones I might buy. Do anyone here know if the Eminence 3015 and 3012HO would fit regarding box size (3ft). I could also need help regarding port lenght for the lowest tuning possible - kind of sealed performance.
    Here is a link to the add :

    Altec made some very fine quality cabinets. Great find.:)
    Sounds like an ideal job for a pair of Fital PR 400's if you ask me.
    Not so keen on the tone of the upper mid of the Eminence 3015ho personally, the Fital has a much more JBL E140 like tone without the enourmose ceramic magnet weight disadvantage.

    Thanks. Would the Faital 15PR400 work in a 3ft.box ?
