I really never never had any interest in a two way system. I like the sound of Beyma tweeters in my K-horn hybrids. We wanted to try the same three way set up in a LaScala set up.

Here's the first one showing one of the woofers installed.

I built a pair of hybrids for Chuck. We had a couple of goals in mind when we started the project. One was improving the mid range performance by using Altec 511-b horns and 902 drivers. Second was to improve high end performance with Beyma CP-25 tweeters. Third to improve the bass 1'' MDF was used in the bass horn like the new Lascala IIs. Also, we wanted to address the toe in problem caused by limited corner space in Chuck's music room. I've got some construction pics coming up next.

I have a pair of K-horn bass bins already built if you're interested.

Here's what I rigged up so that Chuck could try out the 511s and 902s.

Here's a tip. I found out that nail gun oil works pretty good for lubricating screws during assembly.
