Re: What is this Driver?

[bnelson@glasscity.net (Bruce "Doc" Nelson)]

It's not original Leslie equipment.  Ane there are many different schools of
thought on using non-Jensen drivers.  I have no experience with a Gauss
driver, but I know they make excellent products.  We make an adapter for old
Jensen drivers that allows the user to screw on any 1 3/8" threaded-throat
driver.  Personally, I prefer EV or MG drivers.  Some drivers produce an
output that's too crisp--really accentuating things like generator crosstalk
and key click.  Try it out, you may or may not like how it sounds....
