Subject:Re: Leslie motors OK - Question about speaker

I believe Pyle is a reincarnation of the old Utah speaker company. All of
the original Leslie bass speakers were Jensen's to my knowledge.

The Pyle may or may not be a bad speaker. The Jensens were in there largely
because they were inexpensive. That is why Leo Fender bought them for his
amps as well. The Jensen's were not a high quality speaker, and in fact a
high quality speaker can make a Hammond sound worse. This is more true for
the treble driver than the bass, however.

One thing to check on the Pyle is the impedance. The Jensen's were 16 ohms.
If the Pyle is an 8 ohm speaker then you have an impendance mismatch, and it
will impact the sound. An engineer (which I am not) will have to provide
more specifics on impedance, but I do know that Leslie speakers are 16 ohms.

Hope that helps a litte and that the information is accurate (which I am not
100% sure of).
