Re: [hammond_zone] Leslie&X66 Speakers

Dear Jim,
?
I have had some X-66 during time, and it is a great organ. It is not to be understood as a "normal" B-3-sounding Hammond. It is special, and more into the Cinema style. I normally call it the Stadion-organ, as it normally has been used during sport-shows etc.
?
It is a entertainer organ, no doubt.? The special thing with the 12-77 cabinet to the X-66 is more that it is build to get the best out of the vibrato system. And this is really something on this organ. I have never lisened to the Condor system, and you write that it is by Hammond. Does it say so? I have never seen documents on that.
?
I have had Leslies as well as 12-77 hooked up with the organ, and sound is always a matter of personal preference.
?
I might help you to find a X-66 though my main sources is in Europe, and i do not know where you live. We might have a powersupply problem.
?
Looking forward to hear from you
?
Best regards
?

Thanks Lars......Yes I do have the X66 it came with a Condor Sound System ?
Innovex by Hammond... This is all new to me as I always had Wurlitzer organs
and always wanted the X66.. I don't know what happened to the Tone Cabinet
for it. ?This X66 belonged to an entertainer,that is probably why I have
these four big Condor speakers with the organ. ?I was told that the organ's
real sound comes best with the tone cabinet made for it..I don't know as I
never heard it with it. Another person told me a Leslie 122 would sound good
with it and another said it would sound terrible,I don't know as I am new to
the whole Hammond sound anyway, ?But i do like the sound of the X66.Do you
have the X66??? Regards,Jim.
