I would agree with the assessment, that the E140 will be louder in the upper regions (and will go higher), but the EVM15B will have more "whomp" in the midbass and upper bass, and will sound "warmer". It's entirely dependent on the sound desired... since we're talking about music PRODUCERS here, instead of REPRODUCERS.
My guess, is that the EVM15B will probably work better in the Leslie, given that it's spec set is more similar to the original Jensen woofers that were in those originally (and which the Leslie was designed around). But, it's all in the ears of the beholder, in the end...
