Altec Driver & Speaker Cross-Reference

Which Altec driver lived in which speaker — looked up both ways.

Altec Lansing built its professional and home systems from a shared set of components. The 811B sectoral horn turns up on dozens of different cabinets; the 604 Duplex coaxial anchored the studio-monitor line for the better part of three decades. So the two questions every Altec owner eventually asks are "what's actually in my speaker?" and "what else used this driver?" This page answers both, for 113 Altec systems and 127 drivers, cross-checked against published specifications. Models with their own Archive entry are linked — follow one to open its full page.

About this cross-reference

Complements were compiled from Altec's published specifications and the Archive's own model pages, then cross-checked against archival sources (including audio-database.com) where available. Manufacturers revised driver versions across a model's production run, so some systems list more than one driver in a role. Where a driver has its own Archive entry it links through; the rest are listed by model number for reference. Coverage is the systems whose driver complement could be established; a handful that couldn't are omitted rather than guessed.
