Now that I think about it, the person who had this issue with the K402 pushing he Khorn away from the corner had a vaulted ceiling of some sort. It was more of height issue than depth issue.

It seems to me that the 402 horn is an improvement over the original horns used in the Khorns? Anyway I am just curious about this in terms of sound quality. It has good sound quality. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was your Khorn setup before the change to the K402 Horn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another fun fact is that buying the horns from a Klipsch forum member was a great experience in itself! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could have lived with those "good enough" horns, but the K-402 is better. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have used both, depending on the compression drivers in use. When using the passive crossovers networks, you will need to add L-pads to attenuate the signal, because the K-402 is more efficient. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried many different horns (including Volti) over the years, the 402 is the best by a huge margin. The stock drivers that come with them are quiet good, though at some point I will try the Celestion given their stellar reviews. Active crossovers are a must to get all the goodness. They fit easily on top and don't affect corner placement. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
