ALTEC Model Fifteen _Floorstanding Speakers

1978

Made in USA 

Immense soundstage with deep, authoritative bass.

Originally designed as much as furniture as loudspeakers, the Model Fifteen stands out with its bold, architectural cabinet. Large and heavy, with a clean cubic silhouette, it features hidden wiring connections at the base — keeping the look pure and uncluttered. Real wood veneer (walnut or oak) wraps the sides and back, while the slate top adds a refined, modern touch with a distinctly Scandinavian influence.

Equipped with a 12” long-throw woofer delivering powerful low-end extension, paired with a highly efficient horn-loaded tweeter for dynamic, effortless highs. A true studio monitor heritage with impressive sensitivity and presence.
