I have recently left a band directing position where I used 2 king 2350's and 2 conn 20k's side by side in the high school band.
I liked the tight sound of the 2350. I also liked the fatter sound of the 20K. When I had 4 players, the mix was good for me. When I had 3, I usually used 1 king and 2 conn's unless The weight of the conn forced me to reverse the situation.
Both are good horns. I have also used the 14k, and like it as well.
