Hey Danny,
I use Dillon Geib mouthpieces exclusively on my horns. I know that you have a King 2341 which is pretty much a BBb version of my Conn 56J CC tuba. I found on my 56J that the larged cup diameter mouthpieces allow for more lip and thus a bigger sound. I have always prefered a bowled cup mouthpiece and so the Geib has been a good fit. What you would find is the BEST feature of the Geib mouthpieces is the rim contour. It is rather round and smooth with a sharper line where the rim meets the "beginning" (for lack of a better description) of the cup. Definately give the Dillon Geib 5B a shot!!!! Remember, you want the "standard" shank for your horn.
Good luck!
