I beleive that JBL tried to compete on the cinema market with ALTEc by selling multicells horn that were made by Vitavox. The difference was the adaptor pieces. Most of you will prefer to have a full JBL horns. I am looking to mount my JBL 2" drivers on to Vitavox horns. I am looking for the right adaptor.
I will even consider getting dual throts as I multiple compressions drivers.
Exchange with the Vitavox adaptor or purchase or borrow to reproduce. I will consider any avenue.

Thanks,

I have a Dukane/Vitavox 10-cell horn with for 2" drivers - sounds good with JBL.
I also have repro W.E. 19A throat couplers (2") suitable for horn projects. Interested ?

Yes I am interested by the adpator.

Do you want to sell the adaptors or exchange with Vitavox Adaptors?

The Vitavox I have is a Dukane made by Vitavox but possibly the same horn
except mine has 2 rows of 5 cells instead of 3 rows of 5 cells. Therefore, the
throat coulpler would be more rectalinear at its exit than one for a 15-cell horn.
(I was thinking someone might want to buy the whole horn, but you are in Ireland - not practical).

On the other hand I have Western Electric 19A couplers that I repro'ed for
making a copy of the WE 24A horn (similar size & cut-off to a large Vitavox).
These take a 2" driver and the exit is 3" x 2.5". They are alloy and I'll include
templates for a 24A horn plus pictures of the one I made. Weight: 2 lbs, price: $50 each.
