2. Introduction

Designed, engineered and built in the United Kingdom, the VSX Series from Tannoy comprises of three band-pass

and two direct-radiating subwoofers for demanding professional and commercial sound applications. Within the

VSX Series, system designers can choose from a variety of sizes, power levels and low frequency characteristics

to suit particular requirements.

As indicated by their respective suffixes, VSX 8.2BP, VSX 10BP and VSX 12.2BP are band-pass devices, while

VSX 15DR and VSX 18DR are direct radiating models. The three band-pass models incorporate Tannoy's latest

engineering philosphies in band-pass enclosure design, optimising tonal balance and harmonic output through

precisely engineered enclosure geometry and innovative transducer design.

For ease of installation, connections are on integrated, recessed termination panels equipped with both

NL4 speakON

and barrier strip connectors. The speakON connectors are angled and recessed to allow flush

mounting to a wall or ceiling.

All VSX Series subwoofers are housed in rugged, durable birch ply enclosures with ergonomic Integrip™ carry

handles and an integrated pole-mount recess. Coupling VSX Series subwoofers to VX and VXP Series full-range

loudspeakers via the optional VTH pole mount facilitates portable PA applications without need for tripod stands.

Each Tannoy VSX Series subwoofer is carefully tested and inspected prior to shipment. After unpacking, please

check for any exterior physical damage, and save the carton and any relevant packaging materials in case the

unit again requires packing and shipping. In the event that damage has been sustained in transit, notify your

dealer and the shipping carrier immediately.

VSX Series subwoofers can produce high sustained output levels for long periods of time. If users are in close

proximity, these levels could lead to permanent hearing damage. Because Tannoy loudspeakers have a

natural-sounding, flat frequency response and very low distortion, users may not be aware of the potential hazard.

For continuous exposure to high levels, we recommend use of a sound level meter to ensure noise levels are

within safety limits. The meter should be capable of integrating levels over a period of exposure in conformance

with noise control standards.
