Equalisation; Dimensions - Tannoy i8 User Manual

6. Crossover/Equalisation
The i8 is supplied as standard for passive operation via the internal crossover
network. If higher peak outputs are required then it can be used in conjunction with
the Tannoy TX1 controller/crossover which provides high pass filtering and a degree
of parametric equalisation, as well as a fixed crossover point for use with sub-bass
loudspeakers.
The i8 loudspeaker is designed to need no equalisation or correction to overcome
system limitations. As a result, it will only need equalisation to compensate for
difficult acoustic environments.
Over equalisation can reduce system headroom, and introduce phase distortion
resulting in greater problems than cures. If equalisation is required then it should be
applied gently and smoothly. The i8 loudspeaker is a point source, phase coherent
design and violent equalisation will be detrimental to the overall sound quality.
