Hi

I'm new here and just joined as I stumbled across this site as I've been looking for a certain Horn flare for over 27years

I just found these two clips on youtube of the one I'm after so if anyone knows the exact name and model that would be great

Even better if you no where I can get one. I'm trying to recreate my fave LP sleeve and so far the old Adatra 15.5 and Bosch 19.5 one don't come close to looking anything like what I'm after.

Thank you in advance

Regards
Andrew

Thanks

I did email TOA a while back but no one knew if it was one of theirs they sent me better photos of the TH 650 but although it looks the part side on I'm a bit miffed about seeing the screw fixings holding the reflex tube in place.

If anyone else has a clue to how old that TOA is or if someone has one they want to part with please let me know

Andrewmartyn,
 
What do you find interesting in those speakers? They looks like  some kind of re-entry horns and they usually sound very bad.

Thanks for your question, I want to recreate my fave album sleeve. Not sure how to attach photos on here but if you type on google images Depeche Mode Music For The Masses you will see they used 3 speakers. The sleeve was done in 1987 and the one I asked on here to name seems to be the exact one I'm looking for. I have tried others but not happy with the final look once I sprayed them, I want them to work as well, but my 20inch Bosch I bought was too wide near the end of the reflex tube at the back. Thw TOA TH 650 is ideal shape and flare but you can see the reflex tube fixings and I would like it to be spot on sorry if this is sad but I want to do the job right. Finding an old one is a task but to find 3!
