  • Page 4: Installation Instructions

    In order to satisfy a wide scope of fixed or on the road sound reinforcement applications there are five full range models and two subwoofers in the Power V™ range; Power V6, Power V8, Power V12, Power V12HP and Power V15; along with the subwoofers - Power VS10 BP and Power VS15 BP.
  • Page 5: Unpacking And Visual Checks

    A word of warning on high sound levels - these speakers are capable of generating high output levels over sustained periods of time and such levels, over 95dBspl for 8 hours per day, can eventually cause permanent hearing loss. Since Tannoy loudspeakers have a natural-sounding flat frequency response and low distortion, it's possible not to be aware just how high the sound level is high while working with them.
  • Page 6: Operation

    5.0: OPERATION The Power V™ range of products are integrated designs which include system specific EQ and protection circuitry, without the need for external amplification. For room equalization, delay and other commissioning or setup functions, we recommend you use a Vnet SC1 or TDX1 Digital Controller. Below are example setups...
  • Page 7 5.1: AC POWER REQUIREMENTS PowerV™ products are equipped with Neutrik Powercon™ mains connectors which mate with the Neutrik NAC3FCA Cable connector, quick lock with a securing lever for power-in. This AC mains connector is supplied with each PowerV™ product. The amplifier operates between the ranges of 100 to 240 Volts; the auto ranging power supply detects the mains voltage automatically and configures accordingly.
  • Page 8 7.0: ARRAYING As discussed in the previous section, comb filtering cannot 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. The design of the PowerV™ cabinet greatly simplifies the creation of effective arrays, allowing seamless wide horizontal coverage using two loudspeakers without the need for tedious experimentation.
