mustang guy Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 well, after all this; the gentleman decided not to sell... ...I guess I'm on the lookout for a pair of 402 horns now. That's too bad. Finding used 402's is like impossible unless you want to pay more than retail for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dude Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) What a bummer, I hate it when I see adds like this. These type of adds are why I get addicted to searching CL as wee hours in the night. Then I realize I don't have any cash. Not that great of a deal, but there is this one. http://losangeles.craigslist.org/wst/ele/5016203638.html Edited May 11, 2015 by duder1982 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that great of a deal, but there is this one. http://losangeles.craigslist.org/wst/ele/5016203638.html This is how i came across my killer deal, it was on the Bay, but jumping back and fourth between the CL and the Bay it was just a matter of time. i did not have the cash handy either, so i figured if i really wated these critters i found, i first contacted the seller and told him they ARE mine, Balls i know, i then proceed to place ads for my Scalas at a grand per stack, i placed the adds in the direction of LA where i had to pick up the new set up, sold both in less than 24hrs, and being in LA with an empty truck, i picked up my new system.....makes me sweat just thinking about it now, because id feel really bad folding on a commitment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coytee Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 what's retail on these? about 2k$ That would be for a pair verses each. (though I thought they were more like $1,200 apiece (??) ) It would also include the tray for it to sit on and the driver on the back. Basically plug & play ready, not just the horn lens.

wvu80 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Why is part of the ad in Arabic??? do NOT contact me with unsolicited services or offers Geez, how the heck do you know that? And why would someone post that in Arabic? +++ Question: The ad said the system was installed 10 years ago for $200,000. Did it really cost that much to install?

Stevenarrow Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 $2K is getting pricy, but I'll keep my eyes open. I like the co-ax approach, but I am also a 2-way guy. Don't really have the top or bottom octaves in my current set-up. And I honestly don't miss it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IB Slammin Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) There is a local classified ad consisting of the following: one pair - 4x15' LF drivers, MF horn, HF horn 3amps and 2 Dx38 Processors. $3200. and, one pair - 2x15' LF drivers, MF horn, HF horn 3amps and 2 Dx38 Processors. $2800 any thoughts on the quality / value of this equipment? Just saw this. OH MY! is right on the money. Would be nice if it would work out for someone. The 415-402-510 combo is in the top 5 big time two channel systems that I have listened to. I have heard a few big ones..... The plus is that this system can utilize passive networks without .....an active processor.... tc Edited May 11, 2015 by IB Slammin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevenarrow Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 yeah, I was excited to see the ad. I will follow up with the guy in a few days just to re-iterate my interest. see if I can sweet talk him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djk Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 "wife commented on missing the crisp Horn sound so i bought back my K400s" If you have KF850 tops, what driver is on the HF? If you have about any of the drivers EAW offered (except the SSD 3301) you can drop the crossover on the HF down to around 800hz and get a lot more of a 'crisp horn sound' (if that's what you want). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
