Any of the 300 hz multicells will dwarf your LaScala bins.... The 311-60 is better suited size-wise to that cab, and does perform admirably well with the Altec phenolic midrange drivers. They will do your 400hz. with ease. Plus, they would be much simpler to ship to the "Land of Oz". Enjoy!
Isn't it so hard to make a decision?
Yes, I had a look at the size of these things (1003's) & they are quite large, but that isn't really a problem in my room. The issue is, as you say, with getting them here. One E Bay seller wants $1600 for shipping! Outrageous - half as much again as what the horns are worth.
I looked at the 311-90 & the 311-60 from the Altec Pro web page & they look much more suitable.
