I'd agree with you that (for me at least) King sousaphones sound better with a Bach 24AW than with a Helleberg (Conn, Conn 7B, Conn 2 [a 7B with a big cushion rim] or Schilke Helleberg II). The best bet for King sousaphones, though, I find is the old King 26, which was original equipment until UMI bought King. However, a Schilke HII works well for me on the oldstyle detachable bell King 2341 I have and for my Conn 20K I use a Conn 2, just like I did in 1960.
