2101's not too loud, I could set up a pair of Pro3T's above a
stationary amp or amps, using one or both of the low rotor sims to
drive the low end - in fact that's what I used to do. Seems a bit like
going backwards toward an older concept and setting up more gear to do
it. I don't like HS gear 'cuz to me it ain't Hammond.. but I'm not so
pig-headed that I wouldn't try a 2101 if it was really great - having
to set up two to be loud enough on stage - I dunno..>>

I had a couple of Pro3's & the 2101 just sounds a lot better to my tastes.
The MTs had a more brittle sound & the overall tonal response reminded me a lot
more of the old solid state Leslies. The 2101 isn't going to be perfect, but
it seems to get a lot closer. Also both MTs ended up dying on me, & I don't
push them that hard. I can't really speak as to thier comparative loudness as I
was running a V5 w/ the MTs. which has mucho output & the Electro w/ the 2101,
which doesn't.
