A successor to the GT speaker should be found because the tweeter is no longer available. Then it was decided however to engage a larger woofer; instead of 5 inches a 6-incher. The name was then simply found: GT6. This development by Holger Barske and Thomas Schmidt uses Monacor chassis, namely tweeter DT 350NF with metal diaphragm and a Monacor woofer SPH-6 M with polypropylene cone. They are used in a bass-reflex enclosure with bass reflex tube on the rear panel of the cabinet.
A second-order crossover is used (slope 12 dB/octave). In addition there is an impedance correction circuit in parallel to the woofer.

Kit with high-end crossover
Our Kit with high end crossover includes a high-quality ClarityCap capacitor type ESA in series with the tweeter. The electrolytic capacitor was replaced by a foil capacitor of type MKT. All used coils are baked varnish air coils.
- ClarityCap ESA capacitor 5.6 μF / 250 Vdc
- Audaphon MKT CAP 4.7 μF / 160 Vdc
- Audaphon MKT CAP 22 μF / 160 Vdc
- Mundorf baked varnish air core coil BL71, 0.47 mH/0.57 Ohm
- Mundorf baked varnish air core coil BL140, 2.2 mH/0.46 Ohm
- 2x Metal-oxide resistor, 10W 6.8 Ohm (blue-grey-gold)
- Metal-oxide resistor, 10W 8.2 Ohm (grey-red-gold)

Kit with high-end crossover No. 2
Still a better solution provides crossover no. 2. It uses in series with the tweeter a Rike audio oil capacitor manufactured in Germany and in series to the woofer a Mundorf copper foil coil:
- Rike S-Cap 5.6 μF / 630 Vdc
- Audaphon MKT CAP 4.7 μF / 160 Vdc
- Audaphon MKT CAP 22 μF / 160 Vdc
- Mundorf copper foil coil CFC16-2.2mH/0.54Ohm
- Mundorf baked varnish air core coil BL71, 0.47 mH/0.57 Ohm
- 2x Metal-oxide resistor, 10W 6.8 Ohm (blue-grey-gold)
- Metal-oxide resistor, 10W 8.2 Ohm (grey-red-gold)
