The TIDAL Sunray G3 is the third-generation, ultra high-end dynamic 4-way floorstanding loudspeaker in the Sunray series. It uses a three-module, multi-chamber cabinet constructed from TIDAL's proprietary TIRALIT composite, combined with polished stainless steel hardware, a stainless steel driver isoplate mechanically decoupled from the cabinet, and an isolation frame with stainless steel isolation footers to control resonances and external vibration. The Sunray G3 employs nine proprietary drivers per speaker: a 30mm Gen3 diamond tweeter, a 126mm Gen2 diamond midrange driver, a 170mm Gen3 black ceramic midrange, six 192mm long-excursion aluminum-hexacone sandwich woofers, and six rear-facing 250mm passive radiators tuned at cascaded frequencies for fast, deep, and controlled bass response. Frequencies above 300Hz are reproduced by pure diamond diaphragms, while frequencies below 300Hz use TIDAL's black ceramic and aluminum-hexacone technology. The crossover is TIDAL's uno-pulse design, built with ultra-low-tolerance components and housed in a physically and hermetically isolated chamber to minimize microphonics and preserve signal integrity. Electrical characteristics include a sensitivity of 89dB and a minimum impedance of roughly 4.2-4.5 ohms, making the speaker a relatively benign load for high-quality amplification; recommended amplifier power is above 30 watts, with nominal power handling around 150W and peak capability up to 300VA. Each speaker measures approximately 208 x 33 x 60 cm and weighs about 320 kg, reflecting the extremely rigid cabinet structure and extensive driver complement. The standard finish is midnight black high-gloss piano lacquer, with a range of hand-selected veneers and custom colors available on request. Sonically, the Sunray G3 is voiced for crystal-clear, natural, and lifelike reproduction, aiming to faithfully convey the artist's intent with exceptional resolution, dynamic capability, and tonal purity, positioned between TIDAL's Akira and La Assoluta models in the brand's loudspeaker range.
