[HAM] speaker connection on M-100Wayne wayne at wpjohnson.netFri Jan 5 10:45:27 CST 2007
Hi, As Organtec said, the 2 12 inch speakers are driven in parallel by the main amp. The input for the reverb amp is taken from the VC terminal on one of the 12 inch speakers. The output of the reverb amp goes to the reverb I and reverb II switches, then to the 8 inch speaker. I sold my M-111 organ so I can't look to check wire colors, but the black wire is most likely ground, both the 12 inch and 8 inch speakers have one side of the VC grounded. The green wire probably does not go to the TG, but rather to the reverb switches. You will need to trace out the wiring to the reverb switches and find the two correct wires, one to the reverb amp output and one to the 8 inch speaker. Wiring from the main amp to the 12 inch speakers and from the 12 inch speaker to the reverb amp input should be pretty much obvious. Of course, if the previous owner made more extensive changes than just removing the reverb amp and two speakers, then anything is possible as far as the wiring condition goes. By the way, the two 12 inch speakers are not identical. One, with the larger magnet, is the "bass" speaker and the other is the "treble" speaker. No crossover is used. Hope this is of some help.
