AO-39 is the Hammond part number of the power amplifier used in the A-100 series of Hammond organs.
The input network of the AO-39 has a high-cut filter in it. This is reportedly to compensate for the lousy bass response of the built-in speakers. If you would like to brighten up your A-100, you can remove this filtering. (I'll fill in the details upon request) -- JeffDairiki
