CT 298 is a two way compact speaker.
CT 298 is a bass-reflex cabinet loudspeaker with drivers of Dayton and Gradient.
The kit is delivered with the following drivers: - a Dayton AMT Mini-8 air motion transformer (ribbon-tweeter) - a Gradient CR-080 midrange / bass driver
The loudspeaker has been developed by Thomas Schmidt.
The crossover consists of: - a 2nd order high-pass filter (12 dB per octave slope) for the tweeter. - a 3rd order low-pass filter (18 dB per octave slope) for the woofer.
The frequency response of this speaker is nearly linear.
The decay spectrum is nearly perfect.
At low volume, i.e. 85 dB at 1 m, the nonlinear distortions are below 1% above 300 Hz and doesn't exceed 1% at 95 dB at 1 m between 300 and 15000 Hz.

Kit without cabinet, price per speaker EUR 117,00 excl. VAT: € 98.32 / $ 104.22
The high-end kit is delivered with baked varnish air core coils for minimizing microphonic effects. - The current flow through the coil creates a magnetic field which sets the reel of wire in motion. This motion induces a voltage in the coil which adds itself to the signal. The stiffer the reel of wire is, the less the signal will be altered. The capacitor for the tweeter is of type polypropylen (MKP) Clarity-Cap ESA 250 V.
Kit with high-end-crossover without cabinet, price per speaker EUR 143,00 excl. VAT: € 120.17 / $ 127.38
If you want to use a valve amplifier with this speaker an impedance correction should be employed. In this case the component quality is less important; therefore, we offer only one kit (upon request higher quality components are available).
If you prefer to mount the crossover components on a universal PCB instead on wood PCB 150x115 mm, tin plated, price per unit: EUR 4,70 excl. VAT: € 3.95 / $ 4.19 We recommend one board per kit (2 boards per speaker pair)
