Dynaudio D76 Acoustic Center?

DaveThreshold · 19th May 2006, 08:01 PM

The magnet system in this 3" dome midrange driver is inside the voice-coil. I was thinking that the voice coil center might be a bit deeper inside the driver than a typical dome tweeter, which it will be crossed over to, on the same baffle. In other words, does anyone know how far back the center of the voice-coil is from the rear of the front flange?

I could use some info on this because I'm using them with an Eton 8-480, and I want to have the option to use a 1st order xover, so I will be "time-aligning" all of the drivers so that the system has that potential. Since I can't measure phase with LMS, I will be using the voice coil centers for now.

Many thanks,
Dave

Hi
Not sure, but if you can't see the magnet structure from outside of this driver. Then it's very difficult to guess without visual clues or dissection. Sorry no help here.
