Description: This 147 tube amp was taken out of my 1967 Leslie 145. The Leslie 147 amplifier, driven by vacuum tubes, has a few distinctive characteristics: Key Features: Power Output:The amplifier delivers 40 watts RMS.Uses a pair of 6550 power tubes. Design:Transformer-coupled to the speaker system.Simple and robust design suitable for extended use. Adjustments:Dummy Load Switch:This switch connects a dummy load across the inputs. It’s useful for specific applications where the amplifier needs to operate without driving the speakers.Master Volume Control:A continuously adjustable control to regulate the overall volume output of the amplifier.Usage: The Leslie 147 amplifier is typically used in conjunction with Hammond organs and is known for its distinctive sound, often associated with classic rock and jazz music. The combination of tube amplification and the rotary speaker system produces a rich, warm, and dynamic sound that is highly valued by musicians.Maintenance: Given the nature of vacuum tube amplifiers, regular maintenance is crucial to ensure optimal performance. Practical Tips:Powering On and Off:Allow the tubes to warm up after powering on before playing.When turning off, let the tubes cool down gradually.Volume Control:Use the master volume control to adjust the output without overdriving the tubes, which can extend their lifespan.Conclusion: The Leslie 147’s amplifier design is a classic example of tube amplification, combining simplicity and durability with high-quality sound output. Proper use and maintenance can help maintain its performance over the long term.
