| The
Tannoy V8 is a premium quality installation cabinet based around a high
power 200 mm (8") point source, constant directivity Dual Concentric™
transducer.
The V8 incorporates the latest generation
design features including a reinforced paper cone and double rolled
cambric surrounds for high sensitivity, dual magnet assembly, and HF Tulip
WaveGuide™. The high frequency (LF) and low frequency (LF) sources are
coincidentally aligned to a point-source. The result is a smooth, uniform
frequency response over a wide coverage area, unachievable with discrete,
two-way designs in the vertical plane where massive cancellations appear
off axis at the crossover frequency. The 90° conical dispersion of the
Dual Concentric™ allows either vertical or horizontal mounting without
compromising sound quality.
Available in black or white, the rugged
multi-ply birch cabinet in an asymmetric profile allows installations in a
variety of configurations.
The V8 is compatible with the Tannoy TX1
controller, which will equalise the system resulting in improved bass
performance, enhanced HF response as well as providing a 2-way crossover
function, operating at 110 Hz, for use with separate V Series bass systems.
The V8 comes complete with a carrying
handle and 10 mm flying points to provide a quick and secure flying system.
Tannoy’s proprietary Secure-ET mounting modular design hardware provides
the V Series with multiple hanging options - yoke, wall mount, ceiling
saddle, pole clamp, pole mount, and eyebolts. The V8 can be installed in
clusters of 2, 3 or 4 with Tannoy cluster bar hardware.
See the V Hardware cutsheet for details.
