LOUDSPEAKER SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Altec's highly portable 1233 speaker system con­
tains a combination of high-quality, high-power
components within an enclosure of modest di­
mensions. Designed to meet the demanding
performance standards of professional musi­
cians, the 1233 handles up to 120 watts of
continuous,
undistorted power, includes
mountings for biamplification, and yields an
extremely wide angle of coverage.
Superb performance is the result of recent
developments.
A newly-designed high-
frequency driver, constructed with the patented
Tangerine™ radial phase plug, yields signifi­
cantly more high end bandwidth with flat
response. Altec's 15-inch musical instrument-
type loudspeaker with refinements in cone
design gives smoother low end response. And
the 1233's crossover network, specially designed
to enhance the performance and reliability of
the system, provides a smooth crossover at
1200 Hz.
Because of its compact size, professional road­
ability, efficiency, and high power handling, the
1233 system is often a travelling companion to
large gospel groups and musicians needing the
portability yet reliability night after night in con­
certs and nightclubs. Professional in appearance,
the 1233 handsomely displays a black leather­
grained vinyl exterior and a removable textured-
polyester cloth grille. Special metal corner
guards and recessed handles improve physical
handling and set-up. The enclosure itself is rug­
gedly designed, heavily braced and acoustically
damped to maximize its performance as a high-
level musical sound loudspeaker system.
