TAD-GE1 Floorstanding Speakers
58 000,00 €
The TAD-GE1 is a three-way bass-reflex floorstanding speaker for home hi-fi stereo listening. Each cabinet houses two 18 cm woofers and a coaxial CST assembly with a 14 cm magnesium midrange cone and 3.5 cm beryllium tweeter. Its 27 Hz-100 kHz frequency response, isolated CST mounting, and vibration-damped cabinet support a clear soundstage and controlled bass.
The TAD-GE1 floorstanding speakers are three-way bass-reflex loudspeakers for a home hi-fi stereo system. Each speaker combines two 18 cm woofers with a coaxial CST midrange and tweeter assembly.
The CST assembly places a 14 cm midrange cone and 3.5 cm tweeter dome on one axis. The cone controls tweeter dispersion near the crossover, aligning their phase and directivity for a clear soundstage.
The complete system covers 27 Hz to 100 kHz, while the CST assembly spans 250 Hz to 100 kHz. A wood-grain cabinet finish completes each speaker.
Benefits
- Beryllium tweeter: Its light, rigid, vapor-deposited dome reproduces frequencies up to 100 kHz.
- HSDOM profile: A computer-optimized dome shape controls partial vibrations and piston-like movement.
- Magnesium midrange cone: High internal damping reduces unwanted resonance.
- MACS II woofers: Each integrated cone and center cap uses five woven and nonwoven aramid fabric layers.
- SILENT cabinet: Birch plywood bracing and medium-density fiberboard help suppress cabinet vibration.
- Isolated CST mounting: A dedicated support and damping bushings limit vibration transfer into the cabinet.
- Two-way ADP port: Forward- and rear-facing openings support full bass reproduction.
Who Is This For?
The TAD-GE1 is designed for home hi-fi stereo systems that use floorstanding loudspeakers. Its nominal impedance is 4 Ω, maximum input power is 250 W, and sensitivity is 88 dB at 2.83 V and 1 m.
The TAD-GE1 suits listeners who want a coaxial midrange and tweeter with controlled dispersion. Its dual woofers, bass-reflex design, and substantial cabinet serve a dedicated home listening setup.

Why Choose the TAD-GE1?
The magnesium cone has a chemically treated, painted surface that increases rigidity and internal damping. Its design also controls resonance caused by the interaction between the diaphragm and suspension. Together, these measures reduce distortion and improve response to sudden changes in sound.
Inside the cabinet, AFAST acoustic tubes reduce low-order standing waves. Selected, carefully positioned sound-absorbing materials provide further damping. The CST support is machined from a solid 25 mm aluminum plate. Its shape compensates for the sloped front baffle, aiming the assembly toward the listener. This mounting method adapts ISO technology used in the TAD-R1TX.
The lower bass-reflex opening has a horn-shaped interior that reduces airflow noise. A cast-aluminum port flare and symmetrical layout reduce forces acting on the cabinet. A 15 mm aluminum base plate improves floor stability and counteracts the reaction from both woofers.
FAQ
