I run a Jabo KLH-55 350hz horn, two inch throat. I've run the JBL 2482 and Faital Pro HF204nd.

They are good horns. The mounting plate on the throat is what makes them top notch, milled aluminum. Perfectly fit to the horn. The Autotech horns by comparison are just a piece of mdf stuck on the end.

I did find that the rear unfinished back of the Jabos gave off a bad odor, so I painted the back, and that took care of it.


Big speakers and little amps blew my mind!

Thank you, I m thinking of trying either Azura 425 or this horn with Altec 288C.

Hi Abe,

A storm knocked out my internet. I want to give a better reply later. My 12" OSWGs I've had for a least three years, and they are probably older.

Most of my autotech horns have a metal mounting plate, or the smaller ones are fiberglass as well.
