VSX Series
Thank you for choosing a Tannoy loudspeaker product for your application. If you would like further information about this or any other Tannoy product, please visit
our website at tannoy.com.
Unpacking the Loudspeaker
After unpacking the unit, please check carefully for damage. If damage is found, please notify your supplier at once. You, the consignee, must instigate any claim.
Please retain all packaging in case of future re-shipment.
System Requirements – Passive and Bi-amped Loudspeakers
VSX118B, VSX115B, VSX 12.2BP, VSX 8.2BP, and VSX 10BP subwoofers operate as a passive system and require only one amplifier channel.
VSX218B and VSX215B subwoofers have switchable inputs to allow operation in parallel or discrete modes. Parallel operation connects both drivers in
parallel internally and requires 1 amplifier channel. Discrete operation connects each driver separately to the two channels of the input and therefore requires
2 amplifier channels.
To avoid wasting amplifier power, you should use heavy-duty speaker cable, with a minimum wire size of 1.5 mm2 (16 AWG), and preferably 2.5 mm2 (14 AWG) for
longer runs. Use larger wire sizes for speakers wired in parallel. For extreme cable lengths, be aware of cable impedance and resistive losses. Always observe the
correct polarity.
Amplifier Considerations
The VSX series loudspeaker enclosures should be driven by high quality power amplifiers designed for true professional use. Power amplifiers should be capable of
delivering long term broadband power equal to half the loudspeaker's peak power rating at its stated nominal impedance. The use of underpowered amplifiers must
be avoided as heavily clipped signals can cause permanent loudspeaker damage.
Limiters, crossovers and equalisation points must be set in accordance with the settings provided on the Tannoy website. This will ensure the optimum sound quality
and long-term reliability as well as protection from damage. Neutrik speakON* NL4 locking input connector(s) and 4-way barrier strip(s) are provided, allowing
options for input and link, passive, bi-amp, parallel and discrete operation.
