dazzjazz Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Hi all, I know many users have noticed the output level on the Legend organ to be on the low side. This has led me on a merry chase from time to time - I won't bore you with the details, but I have a very good solution for it that sounds great! I use a Stereo Radial JDI Direct Box which converts the line level signal to Mic level, and then send this to twin Yamaha DXR10s with their inputs set to accept a Mic level signal. As there's no impedance issues, the sound is great and the Jensen transformer adds a little magic along the way. It's a fabulous tone - band members and audience commented about it unprompted. I also use the DXRs stacked - they sit very stably one on top of the other. One is a Mk1, the other a Mk2 - I put the Mk2 on top as it is a little more hifi sounding. There's plenty of volume - I don't have to play as loudly as when the speakers are on the floor as wedges and it seems to broadcast to the room well also, given the audience comments.

Dr Mike Metlay Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 I have a JDI Duplex in my boxxatrixxa for every gig. It's never let me down. Sounds great, completely reliable, and if I'm attacked by a charging muskox during load-out, I can stun it with one swing.
