The ALTEC Valencia is loved for its big, open, and highly dynamic presentation. Vocals sound forward, natural, and present. Horn instruments, jazz, classic rock, blues, acoustic music, and live recordings have a sense of scale that smaller modern speakers often cannot reproduce.

The 416A woofer provides a fast, natural low end with excellent tone, while the 806A compression driver brings clarity, detail, and the classic ALTEC horn energy. These speakers are also very efficient, making them a great match for tube amplifiers, vintage receivers, and quality integrated amplifiers.
