Powered by a hafler DH500 power amp right off the sub-out of my H-K surround reciever. They'll rattle the house real well, as well as the neighbors'. The rest of the system is pretty much homemade too. my fronts are driven by a Hafler DH200. The 2 horns you see at top are the mid horn and tweet horns(half of them) The mid-horns are old Speakerlab ferro-fluid filled MH-350's, the tweets just a cheap-o radio shack jobs that do the job(for now). They currently are hung from the ceiling in pairs at the front of the living room.

Cool speakers, Rick! If you're ever through Central IL stop by and we'll spin some vinyl! Have you considered using a tube amp(s) on your mid and hi frequency horns? I sure like the sound of tubes behind horns! Are you using an electronic crossover?
Thanks for sharing the pic; I wish I had one of my Altec 210 cabinets before I sold them. They came out of a theater and were about 10' tall with two Altec 515 (15") woofers in each. I had three of them stuffed in my garage!
