What's the sensitivity of Philips 5060?

goody75 · 12th October 2011, 01:33 AM

Does anyone know what the sensitivity of any of the Philips 5060 (or 5061). I am particularly interested in the 5060/W8. This is the midrange used in the Dahlquist DQ-10's and some other well respected speakers (Rectilinear, Snell, etc...).

I found some TS parameters from the following link - Snell Type A Midrange Phillips AD5060 vs 62 Specs - The Classic Speaker Pages Discussion Forums
but I haven't been able to find the sensitivity anywhere. For what it's worth, the DQ-10's are rated @ 86 db, Snell A's are 89.

About 83 to 89 dB, according to a graph in the Philips catalog. It's a bit hard to tell because the plotted response is "free air" and stops at 4 kHz. The "dipole peak" at 2 kHz is 89 dB, by 4 kHz it's 83 dB.
