  1. I hate it completely. It's distracting, smacks of elitism and is not community focused - allows those with money to flaunt it and take a pinned post simply to be better than anyone else. Will moderators reject paid pins for low value items, such as a $100 cable etc, otherwise it will look rather stupid. For me ultimately it is the pinned posters loss and a waste of their money as I just scroll past them without looking, same as I do on other sites that promote favoritism.

  10. GPA prices almost doubled a year or two back, sadly. You'll pay a LOT with that firm in Sydney.
  11. The Stonehenge V was not an official Altec cabinet. It was developed by Todd White, who runs the Altec Users board, and who worked for Altec around the same time as Bill from GPA. It's a basic reflex box. In essence it made the 620, the standard cab for the 604 that Altec used, taller and thinner, to place the driver closer to ear level, without making the baffle too narrow. There are only the hand drawn plans. Todd was charging a nominal sum for sending them to people.
  12. Power ratings on these (and the bigger 8000C that I have) are VERY VERY conservative. I reckon people weld with them......
  13. Always amazing what you can shoehorn into a car.... Donation made. Cheers.
  14. No, cm. The depth of the gap can often be significantly different in a 902-8A and 902-8B. That is how they are physically different drivers. One has a centring ring (B), the other doesn't (A). Hence one has more volume beneath the top plate (under the dia).
  15. My point is that the 902-8B does NOT become identical to and therefore automatically a 902-8A when you remove the loading cap. They are different drivers. There was sufficient variance in manufacture of the 902 series that even a pair of drivers with the same label can be mechanically different. If yours have 7/8' throats then you have an A and a early to mid manufacture B. Late Bs have a 1" throat. Yes the B came with a loading cap. The ones I have handled did not have them installed. Measure the depth of the gap in both. They may very well differ by 1-2cm. Anyone can google Altec 902-8A vs 902-8B and get the information I posted. You also have no pictures posted, if you're quoting SNA guidelines.
  16. The 902 A and 902 B are different drivers, not in the way you mention. They (can) have different sized throats, depending on year of manufacture. The 90x-xA often has a 7/8" throat, as do many 90x-xBs. Late Bs and the 909 series went back to 1". They also have different construction under the top plate, the A series has no centring ring and more room. This is visible with a torch shone into the gap. A 902-8B is the direct successor to the 902-8A. They both would have originally had a 34647 diaphragm, 8 ohm aluminium. A loading cap may have been fitted to a 908 or 909 series, or fitted to a 902 series to increase power handling. Info from both Great Plains and the Altec Users board, plus actual measurements on my 902-8A and 909-8As. As an aside, the tangerine was first introduced in the 802-8G/808-8B, in about 1976. These were replaced by the 902-xA series in the early 1980s.
  17. That coax is definitely the GPA 604-8h III horn and basket.
  18. Im glad it popped back up the list of topics, an interesting read that confirmed what I suspected.
  19. Crestron (like Extron which i use a lot of) generally can only be purchased via a pro based AV install company, think those that outfit universities and convention centres. Second hand there's quite a bit on flea-pay. For reference the Extron unit that would suit you is an SSP7.1.
  20. Echo Spider. Some times its just best to let people clamp eyes on something. Its all in the reflection.
