Hey Frederick,

See that you use a Behringer 90W combo bassamp for lows reinforcement.

Just curious if you use electronic crossover or a passive Xover one as usual in Leslies.

As you know cutting a bass amp on 800Hz to avoid overlapping with upper horn section
needs a matching inductor to cut woofer frequencies at 800Hz crosspoint.

That to match stock measurement in a Leslie phenolic driver.
as it should be found in a Motion-Sound 145

Which is the lowest frequency of your BEH bass amp ? 

See that there isn't need of passive crossover in the lower end frequencies except for those adding a sub-low amp.

Best,

Rafael

I always use a real Leslie

Either my 145 or my MotionSound Pro3tm with LowPro and an Behringer 90 W
combo bassamp for added lows.

I know may do not like the MotionSound but with a little tweaking if the
speeds I have a pleasant sounding unit.
I does not sound exactly like my 145  - only a 145 can do that.
But rightly tuned the MotionSound has a a sound that does the job. At a
fraction of the wheight.
It also makes up for good Leslie nr2 for a dual leslie setup - meaning I
can haul both in my car. Haulting my 145 and my 142 would need a trailer.
