Do any of you have one of the Kustom "tuck & roll" PA horn cabinets (the kind that you put on top of a regular cabinet) This type had a horn similar to a Altec horn. What were the dimensions of this type of cabinet ? Thanks for any info !

Kustom started to use the Altec type horns in the K150 and 250 series of slant face amps .
If you go into the K150/250 literature section on this site you will in find a duel cabinet set up in black of a 250 series amp with the horn in it.
The cabinets where the same side width wise as a regular speaker cabinet for these amps, the height dimension of the needed cabinet would be what would provide the same horn to cabinet clearance as what you see in the picture on each side of the horn.

Kustom in that time frame also used the smaller type Altec horn As a option in the K150 cabinet along with one 15" driver.

I think it is the same size as the earlier cabinet that had the two police siren horns. 22"x14"x11".

The Kustom Altec horn box is 14" tall, 24" wide and I'm not sure of the depth. The PA cabs from the 300/600 series cab are 54" tall x 24" wide. The guitar cabs of the 250/500 series are 46" tall x 24" wide. The single 15 + altec horn cab used the same horn as the guitar and PA cabs. Both height dimensions are without casters. You can go to the literature section and count the T&R which are 2" pleats.
