Hi everyone,
So I have been using JBL 2420's mounted on Altec 511b for a few years now and am pretty happy with them. I don't notice the ringing that so many people speak of, and to me they sound pretty good.
Anyway, I have available to me a pair of Altec 805's and the seller also has a pair of 291's for them. The cost isn't huge, sompared to prices I've seen on fleabay, but I am wondering if I could use some sort of throat adapter for the 2420 with the 805 inestead. I've heard a number of altec drivers in the past and have always preferred the sound of the JBL. Do any of you think this would be an improvement over what I am using now, or should I perhaps try some of the Azura horns, or perhaps the paper mache ones that Inlow makes (DIY of course ;)
Thanks for any insight you can provide.
