Dunlavy SC-IV Help


Hello gang,

I just did a passive Ohm reading on my pair of DAL SC-IVs. they are the signature version with the peerless woofers and vifa tweeters. Although the manual claims a mostly resistive load that is a nominal 5 ohms and varies little between 3 and 7.5 ohms across the audioband, I read a clear 2.3 to 2.5 ohms nominal on both speakers. All drivers are original and to my knowledge the crossovers have never been "tweaked". I use a Fluke 114 and have confirmed several other pairs of speakers with the ohm test.
Do any other DAL owners feel like slapping a meter on their speakers and letting me know if they see a similar reading?
Thanks in advance

That is about right for DC. (Remember the impedance is a function of frequency and you are only seeing the DC behaviour when using a multimeter)
