System in my basement. Always going through different gear and speakers, keeping a modest budget. 

Listening to some Selah Audio Cima Monitor & Fondazione Subwoofers, but keeping my horn and SET system as well. 

Thanks for looking.

Hi Truxxor, I really like the Altec horn system.   I am thinking of a 604 in an Onken cab.  Would you mind providing details on who made your Onken cabinet?  I think it looks spectacular and I would like to commission a similar cabinet with different woods.
