The 202 horn is significantly larger and better than anything Victor made and that is why the 202/3 are such coveted models. Add in the rarity and you can see why they fetch a premium price.Garret wrote: ↑Mon Jun 20, 2022 3:57 amWow. The horn in the 202 does appear *much* larger.Watanabehi wrote: ↑Mon Jan 10, 2022 7:44 pm Yes, I used to own HMV 193, which I miss very much, but I very much enjoy listening to my HMV 202. The photos show the horn differences between HMV 202 and VV 8-9 or VV 8-35 horns, which I use for RCA theater Alnico horn drivers for stereo usage. I am planning to add field coil Jensen speakers. The photos don't have Jensen speakers, only the horn drivers. VV 8-9 and VV 8-35 horns are larger than HMV 163's horn and a little smaller than HMV 193's horn.

Do you have dimensions for the openings of the respective horns, that is, the length and width of the horns at the bell opening?
Not surprisingly my 202 horn is identical size to Shane's machine.
