What makes you say that  about the Eliminator 1A. We had 8 of them in 1975 they would kill.
123db at 100 watt nothing could touch them. Mine came in from USA not the ones built in Swiss.
We later on replaced the h/f with Bayma CP22

I am so glad you're still hereTongue! I am talking about the picture under the emiminator a1. I think, it maybe is a sentry IV, but normally the horn section is not seperated from the woofer? Unfortunately I don't have the woofer. What I have, looks exactly like the portable midrange/twitcher section on the top. And your picture ist the only one I found, that looks exactly like it. (sorry for bad english)

these may be of some use to you

I did a Google search on the image you posted then refined by image size but couldn't find any catalogues which were any larger or more focussed. I shall continue my seach on my PC archives and see what I can find for you.



For sidefills, can we have two enormous things of a type that might be venerated as Gods by the inhabitants of Easter Island, capable of reaching volumes that would make Beelzebub soil his pants.

Jase---They are a very old cabinet and also very rare in the UK as well as the Eliminator 1A was the very common one in UK back in the day.

If you have picked them up locally in the Brum area then they could have some real serious history behind them as back in the very early seventies there was only one band in Brum using 2x12 Eliminators and it was somebody like The Move or Sabbath or another band of that stature---I am pretty sure that it was pre ELO as I can remember some for sale in the old Wasp music shop on Hurst Street.

Are there any old name stencil marks on them anywhere that may have been painted over or the vinyl covered up as you may have a bit of rock history there.

I think, there is some kind of misunderstanding, probably because my description was too bad. I tried to post some pictures, but I don't know how. Anyway, on the picture of the old EV catalog in this thread, you can see 5 cabinets. I am talking about the one down left. Is this a sentry IV B? Because normaly the sentry 4 is not seperated in two units? My portable EV horn section looks exactly like the one in the catalog, but not like all the other pictures of  the sentryIV that I googeled.

Thanks a lot!! So you think it is a Sentry IV? Even though the horn section is seperated from the Cabinet?

Have you checked to see if it is a 2x12" cabinet or a 1x15" if it is a 1x15" it could be a Altec 1215A. they look very much the same!??
