Congratulations! Yes, those Auditorium 23 spades adapters fit those Altec screws perfectly. I think they were somewhere in the neighborhood of $40-$50 for two color coded pairs.
When I first acquired my speakers, I posted questions re. replacing those screws with more current binding posts on the Lansing Heritage site and received some good info. But thankfully, those A23 spades got the job done and I've kept them "stock".
One of the pair I acquired had a little sun damage but Matt Rotunda advised me to wipe the Altecs down with Scott's Liquid Gold Wood Cleaner & Preservative and a nice soft rag and they looked great once I did that.
Would be very interested in hearing your impressions and thoughts once you've spent some time with your new speakers.
