All Power V™ loudspeakers are equipped with highly efficient, flexible and reliable Class D power amplification incorporating
switching power supplies. Optimally matched power supplies and power amplifier sections minimises noise and enhances
stability. Little is required in the way of heat sinking so the only surface area needed for cooling is the small control panel on
the rear of the cabinet; therefore, even when driven at very high power levels no fans are required, so the system runs quietly
and is not prone to internal dust contamination.
When used as a stand-alone speaker there is, on the rear panel of the full range Power V™ models, a mode switch for 'Full
Range'.Alternatively the 'High Pass' position provides increased headroom for when the unit is used within close proximity to
a boundary and, in a simple setup, allows crossover to a subwoofer without the need for an external crossover.
LED's on the rear panel indicate, signal pressence, signal activity, and power. Two low pass settings on the subwoofer amplifiers
fully optimise integration with the full range units.
Recessed carrying handles aid manoeuvrability and multiple flying points are incorporated to provide a quick and secure flying
system. Tannoy's proprietary Secur-ET™ modular mounting hardware provides the Power V™ range with multiple hanging
options such as wall mount brackets, yoke fittings, ceiling saddles, pole clamps, pole mounts and eyebolts.
3.0: UNPACKING AND VISUAL CHECKS
Every Tannoy PowerV™ product is carefully tested and inspected before being packaged and leaving the factory. After
unpacking your loudspeaker, please inspect for any exterior physical damage, and save the carton and any relevant packaging
materials in case the loudspeaker again requires packing and shipping. In the event that damage has been sustained in transit
notify your dealer immediately.
3.1: PRELIMINARY RECOMMENDATION
A word of warning on high sound levels - these speakers are capable of generating high output levels over sustained periods
of time and such levels, over 95dBspl for 8 hours per day, can eventually cause permanent hearing loss. Since Tannoy
loudspeakers have a natural-sounding flat frequency response and low distortion, it's possible not to be aware just how high
the sound level is high while working with them.
For continuous exposure we recommend the occasional use of a sound level meter. This should be capable of integrating the
sound level over a period of exposure according to noise control standards and used just to check that noise levels are always
within safety limits.
