I have the Stonehenge II's. They certainly aren't worth $2800 - $5000 - that's nuts! I paid a few hundred for the II's. The Altec Stonehenge series are very good rock/jazz speakers. Comparable to JBL.
Altec "Stonehenge III" speakers from 1977 - Any Good?
Happy New Year all.
Wondered if anyone has experience and input on Altec Stonehenge III speakers?
They run $2800-$5000 condition dependent.
I have been wanting to make a great vintage system for my semi-finished basement. Something rare-ish, historical, but really good build quality and of course distinct sound.
I know in general Altec was pretty incredible into the 80s, with the much larger Valencia, 604s, Model 17s, 19s etc.
I would be driving with a PS Audio Pre-amp 5.5, a modified upgraded Adcom GFA-555 with a modified Bel Canto DAC 1 : so "all American".
I have a British retro-system with a Rega Mira and Epos ES14 speakers, so there is a bit of reference for folks.
Many thanks!
