Close, but Jensen and Utah were two completely separate speaker manufacturers. It's the standard Utah OEM driver made by Utah for Leslie and found in many late 60s and 70s Leslie cabinets.Originally posted by crysalis View PostI'm David. 'Dave' is someone else's name.Comment

David I have had 4 or 5 Leslies from 1969 onward and they all had those Utah's in them.Comment

This always seemed odd to me.Why would any speaker manufacturer not put their name on their product?Comment

An internal component provided on an OEM bulk deal basis to Leslie.Originally posted by skydawg View PostComment

Exactly. You don't find "Jensen" on the C15s sold for use in Leslies either.Originally posted by alpine View Post
You do find Utah's 328 EIA code on the Utah woofers, just as you find the 220 Jensen code on the C15s, even though, after ~1971, all the Jensen speakers were actually made by Rola and not Jensen Chicago.
Utah also made an orange cloth-edge 4Ω woofer for SS Leslies.
The Utah woofers are very well-made. I've only had to recone one of them compared to many C15s.I'm David. 'Dave' is someone else's name.Comment
