Re: [hammond_zone] leslie 760 amp

Re: [hammond_zone] leslie 760 amp
Lyle, You are right, off course another parts will affect the sound. Fortunately I paid 160 dollars for the 760, I knew the amp didn't work. But that gives me the oppurtunity to replace it with a tube

Re: [hammond_zone] leslie 760 amp
Gandert, The +30 volts comes from the 760 power supply chassis. Without the 760 power supply you may have to make up a power supply for the crossover/preamp, a small transformer with 15 to 20 volts AC

Re: [hammond_zone] leslie 760 amp
Hi Gandert, A stereo amp will not work the same as the amp that was built for your 760 Leslie. Speaker cabinets are of a very unique design and Leslie's are even more unique (that's why they cost so
