DESCRIPTION
Plus One® cones
By offering up to 25% more cone surface than that in competing models of the same size, the new GTO speakers provide higher efficiency and better bass response.
Low-Distortion, low-Q woofer design
The motor design of new GTO woofers offer significantly reduced distortion levels at high volume levels. The low-Q design allows for soft roll-off and better low-frequency extension than on competing speakers.
Reduced Nominal Impedance
These GTO speakers have a nominal impedance of 2 ohms. Therefore, they extract all the power from amplifiers and head units. Carefully designed impedance curves, though, ensure that these speakers do not drive low-quality BTL amps, like those used in inexpensive head units, into overheating.
My-Ti™ tweeter
Stiff, light and with high efficiency, this new composite tweeter offers far better high-frequency performance, without the high-Q breakup mode associated with metal domes and cones.
Edge-driven tweeters
With more voice coil surface are to dissipate heat, these tweeters provide higher power handling than smaller and cheaper balanced-dome tweeters.
Separate crossover networks
It comes with an easily accessible tweeter-level control switch and a built-in tweeter-protection circuit (PTC). The crossover box has been reduced in footprint, comes with bigger terminals and now also features low-insertion-loss inductors and polypropylene capacitors for best-in-class high audio performance.
Improved I-Mount™ tweeter-mounting system
The extensive accessory set has again been upgraded and now also offers the possibility of pivoting the tweeter with an added angle-surface-mount accessory.
