  • Tweeter: 3/4 inch Soft Dome tweeter from Dayton Audio

Enclosure Description:

  • 2-Way vented-box system

  • -3dB at 68Hz and ±3dB from 800 to 20000Hz on reference axis

  • Approximately 83dB

Recommended Amplifier Power:

  • 15 – 30W into 4 Ohms

A speaker this size will not be able to produce room shaking bass, but these Dayton Audio woofers will surprise you. It sounds like you are listening to a much bigger speaker. It was designed to be small and provide very good midrange quality, but still to produce a relatively powerful sound output. These speakers are best positioned at least 2 feet away from the rear and side walls.
