Altec Bolero, Madera and Corona bookshelf speakers (ad, Jan. 1970)

Home | Audio Magazine | Stereo Review magazine | Good Sound | Troubleshooting






The new Bolero's exclusive fretwork grille is a beautiful cover-up for the finest bookshelf speaker system you can buy.

Inside there's a new low-resonance 10" woofer with an overgrown 10% lb. magnetic structure and a 3" voice coil. It's designed for high power handling and improved transient response. The woofer is backed up by a 10" phase inverter to improve low frequency performance (you'll feel the power of a bass drum or organ pedal notes as well as hear them). For frequencies above 2000 Hz, a new compression-driven cast aluminum horn takes over. It's a combination that assures smooth, resonant-free response to beyond audibility. To compensate for room acoustics, there's a three-position shelving control on the back of the enclosure.

Talk about the enclosure. It features a design so distinctive it's really the first new look in bookshelf speakers to come along. Besides its classic grille-work, the Bolero is finished in choice walnut veneer, then hand-rubbed to a deep enduring lustre.

We make two other bookshelf speakers, too. The Madera and the Corona. They're top-value, full range systems that sell for as low as $85.50. The Bolero, Madera and Corona add up to the newest full line of bookshelf speaker systems on the market today. See and hear them all at your Altec dealers. You'll discover the Bolero has a lot more going for it than just a pretty face.

We wouldn't put on such a beautiful front if we didn't have the speakers to back it up.
