Amplifi er Considerations

The TKT series loudspeaker enclosures should be driven by high-quality power amplifi ers designed for true professional use. Power amplifi ers 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 amplifi ers must

be avoided as heavily clipped signals can cause permanent loudspeaker damage. Limiters, crossovers and equalisation points must be set in accordance with the

specifi cations provided below. This will ensure the optimum sound quality and long-term reliability as well as protection from damage.

Crossovers

TKT Series loudspeakers are supplied as standard for passive operation via the internal crossover network. If higher peak outputs and additional low frequency output

is required, then the TKT series can be used in conjunction with the Tannoy SC1 digital controller. Each input on the network enabled VNET SC1 has gain control and

4 bands of parametric EQ with bands 1 and 4 off ering settings for LF and HF shelving response. The unique routing engine will allow any input to be sent to any output.

Various fi lter types are available on all outputs which can be confi gured as 2-, 3- or 4-way crossovers. All output channels feature an independent speaker alignment

delay (200 ms per channel) and a 4-band parametric EQ for speaker management. Four high performance limiters are also available.

Connections

TKT105 connection is made via screw terminal binding posts. TKT102 and TKT122 have inputs on 1 x SpeakON 4-pole connector and 1 x barrier strip terminal.

Binding post terminals are capable of accepting cables with a conductor of up to 4 mm sq CSA (AWG 12). Red is positive and black is negative. The SpeakON connectors

will accept wire up to 4 mm sq CSA (AWG 12) with an outside diameter of up to 15 mm and a current rating of 30 A. Tannoy have adopted the conventional wiring

standard for the TKT series product: pin 1+ is positive pin 1- is negative. Barrier strips accept wire up to 4 mm sq CSA (AWG 12). Barrier strip polarity is as indicated.
