SCS 3

About the SCS 3

The Thiel SCS 3 is a two-way loudspeaker with a frequency response of 46Hz to 22kHz, 87dB sensitivity, and a nominal impedance of 4 ohms. It is designed to operate with amplifier power between 30 and 200 watts. The speaker features a 6.5-inch woofer and a sophisticated 1-inch tweeter with a long, linear mechanical excursion enabled by a wide roll rubber suspension, Kapton coil former to reduce eddy current distortion, and a large neodymium magnet assembly for high efficiency and low distortion. The tweeter's design includes a copper pole sleeve to stabilize the magnetic field and reduce distortion, an aluminum coil for efficiency, and a long 5 mm magnetic gap allowing 3 mm peak-to-peak linear excursion. The cabinet measures approximately 7.5 x 10 x 19 inches and weighs about 30 pounds. The SCS 3 is known for its very uniform frequency response, low distortion, and detailed sound reproduction, making it suitable for high-fidelity audio applications.
