It's been cold every day though, it's very hot in here since we are on sale until Dec 31. So please come down here. This time I wrote how I felt about ALTEC Patrician 800, which came into Akihabara Store, in my own way. Kawai, Akihabara Store |

4way4 speaker, Unit in use: T350,1824M+8HD,SP12M,30W, 16Ω This is the original Patrician 800 of 103dB. Its enclosure has been already restored and just waiting for the next owner. |

Large-scale speakers of those days were mainly used for talking picture though, ELECTRO VOICE was developed for household use from the Patrician line. |

The crossover frequency is 100Hz/800Hz/3500Hz. Differences from Patrician 700 are the horn which is 6HD for 700 and 8HD for 800 and the crossover frequency which is 600Hz for 700 and 800Hz for 800. |

And the highlight is a woofer of 30W and 76cm in bore diameter. This is a huge and reliable unit as if this woofer were giving Patrician a significance of existence. The cone is made of foamed plastic and lighter than you think, so it is available for smooth movements. |

It sounds good for any genre. The sounds from stringed instruments are smooth and good in quality. I even felt as if there was no ceiling in Akihabara Store since the sounds go up endlessly in high range. And, 30W woofer seems to get affected by a setting on the speaker quite a lot. It seems like the sound goes well-balanced when it's a bit far from the wall. At last I thought that keeping a good balance between the 30W woofer and mid and high range would be a key point. Anyway please come to Akihabara Store to see what I am talking about. |
