I use a PT-50 on my 2341, and I have a buddy that uses a PT-48 on his 2341. Both of these get that great "tuba sound", and allow extreme dynamics on both ends of the horn...(but mainly the big and bold end) :)

The new King 2341's have a relatively large receiver that I have found works better with larger shank mouthpieces. Even so, the Conn Helleberg should be fine because it has a continuous taper of the shank up to the cup. I had a mouthpiece with a flat area at the bottom of the cup, and it hit bottom before seating in the receiver.
