NikkiE Posted September 30, 2020 Report Share Posted September 30, 2020 I have been given a pair of Scan-Dyna speakers and I am trying to get some information on them. I have not found anything on the internet apart from Dynaco A25s etc The cabinets measure 450 x 300 x 750. Enclosed are 2 x 10 inch woofers, a 61/2 inch midrange and 2 tweeters and vents. I would like to know model No. ,max watts and ohms as well as any other info. They are a beautiful speaker and sound really good and are of the Scandyna/Dynaco family.

Martin Posted October 2, 2020 Report Share Posted October 2, 2020 Very interesting. These were not originally sold in USA and were not a part of Dynaco's US offerings. It looks kind of like a super-3-way A50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radfordguy Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 (edited) I, too, have a pair of Scan-Dyna speakers that were given to me. If it weren't for the fact that they came in their beat-up original boxes, I'd have had no idea what they are. However, the boxes identify them as A20's. The cabinets measure 25cm x 25cm x 43cm. I have been unable to find any information on them, though I did find a spec sheet on the Scan-Dyna A25. I replaced the ancient Jensen 12uF electrolytic cap in each crossover with a metalized polypropylene cap, but I have not yet run them long enough to really be sure I have the cap fully limbered up. Oddly, these speakers have integral speaker wires (the originals); there are no connectors on the backs.

The wire tail in lieu of banana jacks was pretty typical of European built speakers for the European market at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiE Posted May 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 Many thanks for that spec sheet. This is the first time I have seen a positive identification for my speakers. Pretty much what I assumed but nice to know for sure. Not too many in Australia, no one that has seen them has identified them correctly.

Radfordguy Posted May 18, 2021 Report Share Posted May 18, 2021 Thank you, Diogenes, for the info on the Scandyna A20. After breaking in the new ClarityCaps, I am extremely impressed with the sound quality. Was thinking of replacing the speaker wire tail , but have not done so yet.
