AMPLIFIER MATCHING
Consult the enclosed product specification sheet for the acceptable power range of amplifier matching. The high peak power handling
of Tannoy loudspeakers permits responsible use with more powerful amplifiers - please read the Warranty.
As with all loudspeaker systems, the power handling is a function of voice coil thermal capacity. Care should be taken to avoid overdriving
any amplifier, as this will cause output overload resulting in 'clipping' or distortion within the output signal. If amplifier output overload
conditions exist for an extended period then the loudspeakers can be damaged.
Generally a higher power amplifier running hard, but free of distortion, is less likely to damage the loudspeaker than a lower power
amplifier continually clipping. Remember also that a high powered amplifier running at less than 90% of output power generally sounds
a great deal better than a lower powered option struggling to achieve 100%. An amplifier with insufficient drive capability will not allow
the full performance of the loudspeakers to be realised (refer to the specification table in this manual for recommendations).
