Sound Dynamics 300ti specifications?


Does anyone know the specs for the Sound Dynamics 300ti loudspeakers? I just bought a pair and am curious, especially about the crossover frequency.

thanks

thanks Johnny.

I think you are about right on with most of the specs. In the last few weeks I have searched the web and they do have a 3/4" tweeter, 4" mid and 8" woofer. I just wonder how much of the midrange the 4" unit handles, for instance if it went up to about 3800 hz before the tweeter kicked in it would cover most of the fundamental tones of acoustic instruments (at least in the upper range). I do have them at home now and they are pretty good, certainly excellent for the price, with terrific detail, a neutral tone and the bass is impressive - down to the mid 30s seems right.

BTW I am driving them pretty well with my 8wpc SET so they are fairly efficient, I thought I read 90db but that is a small matter and also a spec that can be meaningless based on how they do it but in this case they are easy to drive.

thanks!
thanks for the informative reply Johnny.

I don't know how JM Reynaud got away with a 3800hz crossover (plus an unusual dual crossover in the woofer) for it's Trente speaker which has a 1.1" tweeter and a 7" woofer. But it is really good sounding and the thing about the fundamentals struck me because that speaker had presence in spades.

I am always curious about speaker design and the fact that someone is actually using a 4" midrange (in the 300ti)peaks my interest, I would bet you are close with your 550Hz and 2500Hz reply though. It does not seem the midrange driver is working too hard.
