This IPPIN guide is the large-sized home speaker of Caltech "Barcelona." (Satake) The essences of ALTEC woodwork technology are collected based on the highest-class board material which examines and has carried out natural dryness for years especially, and there is a gorgeous atmosphere in which the beauty of grain was coming out efficiently. BARCELONA was designing a maniac's interior design coordination plan perfectly. This system is 15 inch woofer and the horn driver in the upper part, At the front, three lattices are attached. It is the dignified speaker of the classic design representing the 1960s. (Kondo)
BARCELONA has a dynamic force woofer and 511B horn with combining a 802-8D driver, has a low range with power and mid range with transparent and tension. (Kondo) It is as a photograph when I removed the saran net (divided three places). (Satake)
	As for woofer, 411-8A is attached. Edge has exchanged. Originally this is with urethane edge and it is alike a unit of JBL. (Satake)
It is the photo of the part of a horn. It has fitted in entirely. Although glass wool is put in right and left, it is not so packed. (Satake)
	When we remove a horn and woofer, we must remove Two vertical pillars of middle. (Satake)
This is back. The portion of a driver has come out. (Satake)
	It is the part of a lug. That is a size a driver enters exactly. (Satake)
It is the up of a network. It is small. (Satake)
	It is a seal.( It is not a plate) (Satake)
The board on the backside of a horn separates. It seems that it does not separate from the reverse-side side of woofer. It seems that woofer is removed from before. (Satake)
	The inner side of a board has like this. The driver cover is in the middle, and the network is attached to the left. Several resistance attaches to the right. (Satake)

	The upper photograph is a left side network. The lower left is a right resistance group. It is the up photo of a network. It seems that one network is made from these two. Although the upper one can be removed, the resistances can be removed. (Satake)
It is a driver. If you open back, you are able to exchange the driver. (Satake)
	This is the inner side of a cover. (Satake)
Although the cable to a driver is connected, the room in woofer is another room completely and the hole has opened like a photograph. (Satake)
	A stamp like a photograph is just under the horn.. (Satake)

	It is a frame. The main part of Barcelona seems to be the trapezoid black box to which woofer is attached . It seems that the surrounding tree was later pickled like decoration. When I looked at the stamp of enclosure, it seems that an outside of box is ordered outside. (Satake)
It is the logo mark attached to the network. We can see the design of the lattice of a network. (Satake)
Although we saw BARCELONA is with a high-class feeling apparently, the face of the system of usual ALTEC is seen only by taking a saran net. If we take an outer frame -- -- we can imagine a usual professional face. Although it is sale in 1970 and a comparatively newer speaker, there will be dignity beyond it. As simple structure is also good. It is like America It was the voice of theater which has the form of the furniture that is going to a model 19 etc. (Satake) When I tried listening BARCELONA for the first time, I was very surprise that the sound pressure level is 96db,the sound is thick, the low range is with the resolution of the horn . It seems that my heart becomes pure in front of this speaker. I am nostalgic when I was able to pass music and pleasant time. (Kondo)
