CIGARBUM Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Has anyone had any experiences using the Leslie speaker. I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas of an application for the speaker whether it be for a center channel or possibly a single rear speaker when listening to strictly to channel stuff. I haven't heard one of these speakers in a long time but I was just wondering if maybe something kind of fun to play with and get maybe a little bit different sound out of my system. Any information or recommendations would greatly be appreciated thank you very much for your attention. Cigarbum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Is this the one with the rotating horn. There is a shop here that wires them up for guitar use. I couldn't speak for 2 channel. If you decide to try let us know what you think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Richard Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 A Leslie would be the worst choice possible for a hi-fi speaker. For music production only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JL Sargent Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Best to give that to somebody with an organ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djk Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 The Leslie DVX-580 home speaker is good and could be used for a center channel. Target the mid-HF module straight forward. http://www.audioheritage.org/vbulletin/attachment.php?attachmentid=14310&stc=1&d=1143434400 The one that rotates is for organ use.

JL Sargent Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Definitely cool. Get you a Hammond organ to go with![Y] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhetor Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Had a Leslie once a number of years ago . . . Never regretted passing it on to a good home, but . . . One regret? Never hooked it up with other speakers just to see what it would sound like . . . Should have just one time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
