Sir, with all due respect, you keep asking about Altecs, but what you seem to be describing is closer to what you would receive if you found some Bozak 207a's. Altec's are great speakers, but they made many different models. The advantage of Bozak's has to do with the fact that Rudy Bozak developed his whole product line utilising that one woofer with the dual cone tweeters. As a consequence, the 12" woofers are readily available and very inexpensive. They have cloth surrounds, Alnico V magnets and are relatively efficient. I know from experience that they are very tough speakers. Also, because they are sort of a fixture in the marketplace, you could buy some and if they don't work out for you, you could sell them without a loss. Besides which, I'm pretty sure that if you try them, you'll like them. They have great bass. Without a midrange driver, they should be soft in the midrange. And with the dual cone tweeters, they are also soft in the higher register.
