Yes, Joe has the only other true "Leslie From Hell" that I've ever made. (A couple of others have an earlier generation.) Here's a link to my own LowBoy From Hell™ --

At the time I converted Joe's, my Leslie was a full-size cabinet, but I like the results of the work for Joe, and commissioned a 145-size cabinet, then transferred all the parts.

Note the size comparison between the woofer's magnet and the tweeter's body! That's the kind of component necessary to run with a Speakeasy AMA and a bridged, wide-open ART SLA2 (560W RMS), and not worry about replacing the tweeter's voice coil every few months.

BTW, I've never RUN the thing wide open at a gig -- never needed to. 560W is a lot of sound, especially with the AMA in front of it. I've opened it up a few times in the band room at my house, but things tend to fall off the walls! The beauty is, the sound I get then, and the sound I get when my wife is (comfortably) watching TV in the next room, are almost the same.

Regards,

-BW
