Yes, its actually a truncated version of the 240 designed to fit in a KHorn with modified riser.

I can see the difference in the 2 sizes

What are the actual measurements for fitting into the box casing

I am seriously contemplating getting the larger size if it's available in kit form, as an upgrade to the 400

Should also compliment the designer and maker of this horn type as it gives me so much listening pleasure

25x14 for the Eliptrac 240

20.5x12 for the truncated K version.

That will fit nicely on the La Scalas

Just wondering if any side by side testing has been done of the 400 & 240

If so - Can you share your impressions

Would it suit larger or smaller rooms or all room types

I will be reusing the current GPA 399 mid driver - not the one you noted earlier in the thread

Yes, I did a side by side comparison at Johnny5's place. Craig prefered the 240, he said " Big Horns make a big sound, and I like it."

I think either the 240 or the 400 would work well in a lascala, as long as its 3 way.

Those are stunning, I would leave them alone if it were me.

Thank you

A lot of credit should go to the previous owner and KC member

My contribution is some fine tune tweaks inside the dog box and bass box, also crossovers and hookup wire

Just today I installed some Duelund cast silver resistors on the crossovers

That shape reminds me of some machinery from my steel making days but I just can't recall at the moment

Another forum member used this shape on his Lascala's, I always like it, and finally got a chance to implement it.

I think these are going to work nicely, the horns are being paired with the BMS 4592 drivers.
