Author Topic: Altec 1570 amps Jon Bartow Master Film Handler Posts: 287 From: Massachusetts Registered: Nov 1999 posted 08-31-2002 07:49 PM                     What's the difference between a 1570A and a 1570B? Namely I have a 1570B and a schematic for a 1570A.  |  IP: Logged Kenneth Wuepper Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1026 From: Saginaw, MI, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 09-04-2002 06:51 AM                     Hello Jon, Information and diagrams for Altec Professional audio products are available from Electro Voice as they now own that division. You may contact them through the WEB, I just don't have that URL handy. Happy hunting!

I got two of those amps from a drive-in theatre a couple of years ago. If I can find them, I'll send you a copy. ------------------ Barry Floyd Floyd Entertainment Group Lebanon, Tennessee Stardust Drive-In Theatre Watertown, Tennessee  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!!

Altec was owned by the same companies that have owned EV. Like MarkIV and eventually Telex. However, Altec has been sold from Telex to ... ALTEC. Once again, Altec Pro and Altec Consumer are owned by the same company. The official Altec web site is www.altecpro.com There are several unofficial Altec web sites though run by devoted fans like the unoffical Altec Lansing site http://nleinternet.net/alteclansingunofficial/index.html Steve ------------------ "Old projectionists never die, they just changeover!"  |  IP: Logged Aaron Sisemore Flaming Ribs beat Reeses Peanut Butter Cups any day!

Posts: 3061 From: Rockwall TX USA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 09-22-2002 12:01 AM                     The only real differences between the 1570A and 1570B is the 'A' was a standalone monoblock amp with no provision for rack mounting, and the component layout is different as well. Here are front and rear pics of a 1570A: And here is a 1570B, front and rear: -Aaron  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-22-2002 05:07 AM                     Steve, They may be self owned again but they have obviously been "Telexed"! Not a shade of the ole company left, let alone any cinema stuff.....whats the deal. Are parts and such still available at all? Mark @ Claco  |  IP: Logged
