Altec Madrid 872A with original 15-inch 420Y Biflex coaxial drivers Local Pickup only in Milwaukee WI

The Altec Lansing Madrid 872A is a vintage 2-way loudspeaker system from the early 1970s, highly regarded for its warm, classic "Altec voice" and MCM aesthetic. It is effectively a furniture-grade version of the Altec 870B system, featuring a 15-inch 420Y Biflex coaxial driver. This set is in Good condition; they sound great and the drivers are in excellent shape but there is some delamination in some of the cabinetry and some of the wooden matrix on the front grille has broken off (but we've retained most/all of it) so it's a mixed bag cosmetically, but these are great where it really counts, the sound.

• Sound Profile: Known for a smooth midrange, natural bass response, and detailed vintage highs, making it an excellent match for low-power tube amplifiers due to its high efficiency.
