Tannoy V8 260 Watt 8 Ohm Speaker - Black
The Tannoy V8 is a premium quality installation cabinet based around a high power 200mm (8”) point source, constant directivity Dual Concentric™ transducer.
The V8 incorporates the latest generation Dual Concentric driver design. The features include a reinforced paper cone with double rolled cambric surround for high sensitivity, dual magnet assembly and a Tulip WaveGuide™ for the HF unit. The high frequency (HF) 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 has an asymmetric profile that allows installations in a variety of configurations.
The V8 is designed to function properly without the use of any controller. A compatible controller will equalise the system resulting in improved bass performance, enhanced HF response as well as providing a 2-way crossover function (the Tannoy TX1 controller would cross over at 100Hz) for use with separate V Series bass systems.
The V8 comes complete with a carrying handle and 10mm flying points to provide a quick and secure flying system. Tannoy’s proprietary Secure-ET™ modular mounting hardware provides the V Series with multiple hanging options - wall mount, yoke, 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 specifications for details.
