Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site

Hi Dominic,

I have some Rola's. Although intended (in organs etc) for quite widerange use I'm not sure that for listening to music they should be allowed to go too high. The other thing I found was that what lower frequencies they produced were more natural (and relaxed) when the current was turned down a bit.

I lent another pair to a friend who is a session guitarist who finds them hugely preferable to practise with in comparison with the more usual Alnico equipped vintage Celestion G12's etc.

They do have some very desirable qualities but incorporating them in a good sounding loudspeaker design is tricky and may require more modern diaphragm/surrounds to be fitted while preserving their sensitivity.
