Would anyone mind posting a pic of their AKG K240 Sextett box? I think I found one, but the owner may have mislabeled it, and I just want to confirm that it is the same product.

Thanks,
Tri

Two styles of Sextett boxes, plus a K241 box for good measure:

I wish all boxes were as fly as the one on the left.

what production run does orange coloured diaphragms denote and is there a sonic difference between the production periods? From what I understand the runs are categorised as early mid and late, but I dont know what years corespond to each period.

Orange is Early Period, white with orange ring is Middle Period, all-white is Late Production. Each revision has progressively less bass. Years would be late 70s early 80s I believe, don't know percisely.

Awesome stuff mate, appreciate it.

I have though just found this thread which beautifully covers this question, so for anyone else interested this is worth a read:

He's got a bit of a cocobolo look to him, I think you need a good amp to let him shine, but when it shine's ooo it shine's! I wonder how it compares to a R10?

She was already there and wouldn't budge... Mathilda likes to appear out of nowhere and get in the way whenever she senses I'm about to do something.
