    V300 is the natural choice. The 12” SuperDual™ ensures the most even frequency response over a wide coverage areain the medium size venues for which the Tannoy V300 is designed. In common with the rest of the V series products the V300 features a foam covered mesh grill, aesthetically essential for use in theatres and live performance applications.
  • Page 4: Polarity Checking

    Cable choice consists mainly of selecting the correct cross sectional area in relation to the cable length and the load impedance. A small cross sectional area would increase the cables series resistance, inducing power loss and response variations (damping factor). Connectors should be wired with a minimum of 2.5 sq.

    V300 can be used in conjunction with the TDX2 or other OEM loudspeaker management systems.The Tannoy TDX2 Digital controller will provide crossover, parametric EQ, limiter and delay functions (See the relevant literature on the TDX2 for further information).
  • Page 6: Arraying

    8. Arraying As discussed in the previous section, comb filtering is a phenomenon, which cannot not be cured by equalisation. Small alterations to loudspeaker positions can have the effect of minimising problematic combing frequencies. Arrays should be constructed so that the individual coverage patters of each loudspeaker combine with minimal overlap.

    13. System Configuration & OEM Controllers 13.1 Passive or Biamp? The V300 is supplied as standard for passive operation via the internal crossover network and is connected as shown in Figure 1. To reconfigure for Biamp operation simply follow the wiring schematic as shown in Figure 2.
  • Page 15: Passive System Parameters (Optional)

    13.2 Passive System Parameters (optional) With the vast array of digital loudspeaker management systems available it is inevitable that the user may opt to use a controller other than the TX2 & TDX2 as part of a large scale integrated system. In passive mode the V300 has been designed to need no external equalisation to overcome system limitations.
