	Can be done, I haven't had opportunity to hear enough scoops built that way in different setups and situations to be sure of the difference.. Many soundmen claim a flat angle will "throw" the sound a bit more and give it a kicky harder feel.. The curved scoop section is supposed to sound, well, rounder... Might just be another of those Soundman fables.. As a compromise a scoop section made of two angled pieces to approximate the curve would be more accurate to the horn than the flat panel.

	I heard / read you don't even need any type of curve or slant in the mouth area & the box will still sound good.

	CHEER'S FOR THE REPLY, I WAS THINKING OF DOING IT THIS WAY, INSTEAD OF USEING THE ROUND CURVE, AND SEE HOW HEAVY IT SOUNDS.
