Specs on drivers anyone?

[Keltern]

Does anyone have access to specs on the Dali 606 drivers?

This is all the info written on the magnetlabel:

Tweeter: D26TG-47-06

06 Ohm - 703

Bass/midrange: TC18BG08-12

12 Ohm - 707

The support isn't answering any time soon it seems..

The tweeter number sure looks like Vifa, TC18 is also used by Vifa.

The Dali woofers are definitley made by Vifa.

Yes, I reckoned they were Vifa..

But I can't seem to find anything about them, so can any of you guys try? Tried searching around, but no luck.. So I was hoping you could give it a try!

They are likely OEM drivers made specifically for Dali -- only Tymphany & Dali will have the specs.

Almost all Dali drivers are OEM VIFA drivers, however the D26TG-47-06 tweeter is very similar to the D26TG-35-06 (http://www.tymphany.com/datasheet/printview.php?id=255)

The woofer I'm afraid doesn't have a directly comparable off-the-shelf version.

Typical.. ^^

Is there anyone on this forum that's known for having a connection to Dali?

I don't want to throw these away, cause I'd rather use them in a little DIY speaker.. I have two sets of 606, and one of them are a bit shabby, so I thought I'd make use of the drivers..

But it seems it's hard to get specs on them, so I don't know what to do...

Measure them then. You should anyway if you are making a decent job of the project even if you have manufacturer parameters.

The woofer should be close to this but with a higher impedance curve.

In Oz we get a PAE 18WG08 which is basically a TC / BC driver.

Well, I do business with Peter Lyngdorf but I'm not sure he's willing to disclose such information. I can ask at the next oppertune moment though.

Well, I don't know how decent it'll be, as I haven't built speakers before.. But I'll try to make the best of it!

Sounds good! I just hope I'll be able to make use of them.. It'd be a shame to throw them away just because someone thinks such info should remain a secret.. They're not in production anymore, so I don't see the big deal! But then again, it could just be me!
