95 dB for 8 hours per day will eventually cause permanent hearing loss. Because Tannoy Monitors have very low levels of time, amplitude and frequency distortion it is not always obvious that the sound level is high while working with them.
We recommend location of the monitors so that the drive units are toed inwards, with their axes oriented towards the listening position. The distance between the two speakers should be 1.5 to 2.5 metres, depending on the monitoring position. The distance between the monitoring position and each speaker should be slightly greater than the distance between the speakers.
Because of the high peak power handling of the Tannoy monitors, responsible use of even more powerful amplifiers should not represent a danger for the speakers if the amplifiers are not overdriven.

(as in monitoring situations). The set of parameters that are arrived at as a solution are inevitably a compromise and the skill of Tannoy has always been shown to be getting these particular parameters correct for the application.
The surface will change colour when wet but will return to normal when dry. For touch-up of paint chips contact your local Tannoy service agent for materials and guidance.
Crossover. The crossover is mounted on the internal vertical brace, behind the terminal panel. To inspect it, first remove the panel by releasing the hexagonal screws. Take care to avoid undue stress on the cables and components. To remove the crossover completely the cables must be disconnected from the drive unit.
