Subject:Re: switched to the XK3?portable Leslie 21?

Also, according to the diagrams on the HS website,
there is no bass rotor in the 2100 system. It is done
by simulation. This must mean that you have to plug in
the 2101/02 into another speaker cabinet or the 2121
bass cabinet, which, again, does not have a real bass
rotor. Hey, don't you guys care about that???

Now, I am really looking forward to hearing the new MS
1771. I don't care what it weighs. I have friends!
