[HAM] SRO Speakers

[Michael Casino]

I had two 145's when I was gigging in the very early 70's.
One of them blew a woofer and the quickest replacement ( before I knew
anything about tube amps) was an 8 ohm EV.
That Leslie worked for years that way.
The sound was a little grittier at higher volumes out of it than the other
one.
Today, I would not do this since I have a lot more respect for my posetions.
