The
Tannoy V15 is a premium quality installation cabinet based around a high
power 380 mm (15") point source, constant directivity Dual Concentric™
transducer.
The PowerDual™ uses larger HF and LF
magnet assemblies and voice coils to increase efficiency, power handling,
and SPL substantially over its predecessor (the i15), but like the i15
offers all the benefits of Tannoy Dual Concentric transducers. 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 75° conical dispersion of the PowerDual™
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 V15 is designed to function properly
without the use of any controller. A compatible controller, such as the
Tannoy TX2, will equalise the system resulting in improved bass
performance as well as providing a 2-way crossover function, operating at
100 Hz, for use with separate V Series bass systems.The V15 comes complete
with a recessed 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.
