I'd a pair of Older Altec 621 in my hall, that I'd did a small modification extending the length of SP cable. So that I can place them 8ft apart. This speakers, prouce alot of bass, I've to set the woofer volume real low. It's musical, it's enjoyable, the biggest short coming is the max volume, one can squeeze from it, before it distorts. Yes! I know, I'm asking for too much for that little price. however, unless you really go for big orchestra sound, this baby is quite adequate for most of the listening.
It is connected to my TV, CD player, tuner via a Diva Classic one tube preamp.
