Model W 293

Ricco Kühn Model W293 / W W294
"Reißmann / Börner", Full Double Horn in F/Bb
Our best selling 'flagship' "Ricco Kühn" double horn is the W293 model. This double horn represents a further development of the well known Reißmann/Börner instruments. The wide bell piece has been completely revised and is now mensurated according to the latest computations. By means of a newly developed mechanism the unlovely switch noise of the 120° valve (characteristic for the K- model) could be cleared away without affecting the perfect air passage unfavourably. Model W294 possesses an additional A- / stop valve. 

 
Model 263

Full Double Horn in F/Bb
W263 is a completely newly developed double horn model. By means of the new construction of the tube guideway a nearly ideal balance between Bb and F part could be achieved. This has an openly built corpus similar to the K=model. Also, the attaching of an A-/stop valve is possible. 
Model 253

Ricco Kühn Model W253
Full Double Horn in F/Bb
This model is a compensating double horn in which completing tube parts can be switched in order to change from F to a Bb horn. The tube way corresponds to well- known "Wendler"- model (Fa. Kruspe) in principle. In the course of further development the position of the mechanism and the lengths of some tube parts have been changed. 
 
Model 233
