The ferrociously cooled was reviewed a while back on the list. I believe
Scott proclaimed it acceptable in sound, a bit brighter, which can be
good in many non quiet places. He suggested readjusting the screw in the box
on the preamp if you need mellower. Others have said to add
a reisitor accross the terminals I believe. With or without these changes
they seem to be a good speaker I have one in each of my Leslies.

Tony La Brasca BT Productions is promoting a new speaker which claims to be
sweeter by virtue of having a phenolic diaphragm. Would you believe he's a
bit of a promoter? Maybe its true.

Maybe you can tell the difference hearing it over the phone!
