Anyone know anything about the HL822 speaker in the pic below? Was this a quality product? How did it compare to other Leslie models?

Thanks all

It looks like an HL-822. I had one once for my C-3 and it was terrific. As good as the wooden leslies - powerful and smooth.

Wow that was quick Zuki. Thanks! A friend of mine locally saw it at a sale but didn't know much about it's reputation.

Take care,

Chris

Sure Chris,

No problem. Tonight I'm grilling beer can chicken (1 1/2 hours w/soaked chips), spaghetti squash, baked potatoes and wok food of broccolini, diced Chinese water chestnuts, onions and mushroom. Of course, sipping on some red zinf and eating gourmet cheese.

Zuki,

That sounds like great food. Would you please share the meal recipie with us or email it to me? Is the beer can chicken really worth all that trouble?

Thanks,

Tom

Hi Tom,

LOL. Yes, the beer can chicken is worth it. I do that about 1 - 2 per week. Just buy the beer can holder, put a 1/2 can of beer in it, marinate (I use different things) the whole chicken (take out the insides of course) for a couple days and then put the chicken vertically on the beer can.

I like charcoal and use a Weber Gold. I use a charcoal chimney (eliminates lighter fluid) to heat my coals. Once heated blood red, I pour them in the grill and spread around the perimeter, so to leave an opening for the beer can chicken to rest. I put it in the center of the BOTTOM rack (leave off top rack) for 20 minutes (indirect). This gets it going and a bit charred - awesome (but not burned). Cover with grill holes open.

After that, I transfer the chicken to the TOP grill for an hour or so (180F), again, in the middle (Always cover). I put the soaked/drained chips on the coals after the first hour.

Some put a few new coals on every 1/2 hour, but I've never had to with the chimney.

Be careful when you take the finished chicken off the beer can (extremely hot aluminum can) and never drink the beer - you'll end up with beer can chicken and burned tongue

You will never have a more tender, more awesome chicken


Sorry for OT

I believe this is a transistor powered unit. I have tube 145's and 147 rv's, and prefer tubes, but this one should be great and more powerful than the ones I use.
