INTRODUCTION
ALTEC loudspeakers have been the standard of the professional recording,
broadcast and theatre industries. These ALTEC loudspeakers are handcrafted
and tested to meet ALTEC’s standards – the most rigid in the industry.
In 1945, ALTEC introduced an amazing series of two-way speaker systems to
the world of motion picture entertainment. Their success was instantaneous!
Following prolonged competitive test, this series of speaker systems became the
only commercially available sound for motion pictures approved by the Research
Council of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences . . . thereby,
establishing the Voice of the Theatre as the “standard” of the entire industry.
The Voice of the Theatre. Known by name. Known by sight. Known by
reputation. A legend in its own time. Once an exclusively professional product,
overwhelming demand forced its being made available to those who insist upon
its unparalleled presence and efficiency for their homes. The only way to
duplicate the excitement inherent in the sound of the theatre – the Voice of the
Theatre.
Excitement . . . drama . . . realism . . . emotion . . . Adjectives that describe the
ways you feel during the film experience. The experience of sight – and of sound.
The experience that is the Voice of the Theatre – a legend in its own time.
The legacy of the A7 is a famous one. Starting life purely as a cinema playback
unit, it was soon in demand for use as a studio monitor and home reproducer.
Many engineers still swear by the A7, and have made it their standard of
comparison for everything audio. Very versatile and efficient, the A7 is ideally
suited for use wherever good projection over long distances of wide-response
material is required.
