wafish Posted November 17, 2013 Author Share Posted November 17, 2013 True, like all metal horns, it rings. No shortage of threads in the archives on how to deal with it. It sounds much better than a K-400, at least to me it does. too my knowledge I never had the opportunity to hear the 511b horn. They were on my wish list until I ran across a deal on these 1003b horns.. Hopefully they were a good move. btw I just bought a pair of 291 16k drivers, cant wait for them to arrive.

Wrench722 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 I follow this topic for a long time. When I built the Hhorns I came up with the K-55 and Altec 511 horn along with the JBL 2404. I used to fool around with an Altec A7-500 cabinet (one of the Voice of the Theater systems). There was something satsfying about the Altec 511 horn that I liked. Everyone likes the 511. They they sell them and buy things hoping they sound like the 511. Love the 511 but they are getting harder and harder to find in good shape. I used a little spray on deading rubber on them before installing and it made them a little warmer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
