    Question Trying to hookup Internal Leslie from t-400 to an m3

    Recently fell into possion of an internal leslie unit from a t-400 and would like to install it in my m3. It looks like the space might be tight, but I might be able to squeeze it in.

    The internal leslie has a 5 pin plug and the speaker in the M3 is a old field coil best I can tell.

    Any guidance on how a should proceed are greatly appreciated.
    thx

    Down below is the T-series Leslie connector's wiring, and here's the link to the EM to PM conversion: http://www.dairiki.org/HammondWiki/S...ToPMConversion
    I would use a relay to control the Leslie speed, it's safer that way...

    Cheers,
    Jussi

    I'd leave the M3 speaker in place and just wire it in parallel with the M3 speaker.

    And I'd put in a crossover at around 100Hz so that the bass went to the static speaker and the treble went to the smaller 8" unit in the leslie (it doesn't like bass that much!). Plus a switch so that you can go back to the 'main' speaker when you want to.
    It's not what you play. It's not how you play. It's the fact that you're playing that counts.

    I didnt bother with the crossover on my M100 and it sounded fine. FWIW.
