All of the marching low brass and euphoniums by "King" of recent manufacture that I've worked on has had Jupiter pistons. Also, the metal felt like Jupiter metal when I was doing dent work, so I believe that Jupiter is making all the "King" sousaphones, and if they are marketing a "Conn 14K", it it Jupiter, too. The Conn 20K, to my knowledge, is the only American-made sousaphone left, and that is probably why there is a waiting list for them.
