Kustom Horn Drivers [message #13876] Sun, 06 June 2010 01:23   sunnhead Messages: 221 Registered: June 2010 Location: Minnesota Senior Member I recently bought a Kustom 2x15+H cab on CL. So the guy played bass through it.... driver is fried. So here is the question, who made these? Did Kustom hire out a company to supply Them with drivers? All the driver says is "Kustom 334" the thing weighs a ton also! I'm pressuring a project to put a pair of D-130's in this cabinet. Report message to a moderator

Finned casing. I'm sure that any speaker re-coner, can replace the diaphram and get it working again. The original driver used on the 15" siren horns are Atlas Sound. pleat Report message to a moderator

I just picked a pair of 2x15+H cabinets a month or so back in black with covers along with a K300 PA head. Near mint. We use all kustom amps in the backline, so I plan on added the PA cabs to the fronts as soon as I can get a pair of 18" Subs. Old school meets new school and will rock. pleat Report message to a moderator
