1. Introduction
The Tannoy V12HP utilises a high performance Dual Concentric™ drive unit – the 12” (300mm)
PowerDual
™
. The substantially increased efficiency and power handling of this all-new driver design
ensures that the V12HP is capable of delivering high SPL’s in even the most demanding
applications. Like all Tannoy Dual Concentric loudspeakers the Tannoy V12HP exhibits true constant
directivity, providing an even frequency response over the entire area of coverage. The output
capability makes the Tannoy V12HP suitable for much larger audience sizes or venues requiring very
high SPL’s, such as nightclubs.
The V12HP comprises one 12inch PowerDual
™
Dual Concentric
™
driver in which the low frequency
(LF) and high frequency (HF) sources are coincidentally aligned to a point source, resulting in a
smooth uniform frequency response over a wide area of coverage either as a portable stand alone
system or in a multi-cabinet array. As the system is a point source, clusters and arrays have minimal
lobing. These features are inherent and achieved without the use of any electronic signal processing.
The asymmetric cabinet profile allows flexible and discreet installation. As a foreground system,
installation is made simple with a range of Secur-ET mounting hardware, designed specifically for
the V series – or the system can be flown using the integral M10 inserts.
For portable stage use the birch ply cabinet has a recessed carrying handle on the rear of the
cabinet and a blanking plate, which can be removed to install an optional pole mount. As a
versatile low profile stage monitor, the conical coverage pattern gives the performer greater freedom
of movement than allowed by conventional horn loaded designs.
The V12HP has been designed for use with the Tannoy TX2 controller, which will equalise the system
resulting in improved bass performance as well as providing a 2-way crossover function, operating
at 100Hz, for use with separate sub-bass systems.
2. Unpacking
Every Tannoy V12HP product is carefully tested and inspected before being packaged and leaving
the factory. After unpacking your loudspeaker, please inspect for any exterior physical damage, and
save the carton and any relevant packaging materials in case the loudspeaker again requires
packing and shipping. In the event that damage has been sustained in transit notify your dealer
immediately.
3. Connectors/Cabling
The V12HP is fitted with 4-pole Neutrik Speakon
™
connectors. Speakon has the following
advantages over EP and XLR type connectors: All terminations are solderless; this makes life easier
at the time of installation or when field servicing is required. Contacts will accept 6 sq. mm wire with
an outside diameter of up to 15mm and a current rating of 30 Amps. The pins of the 2 Speakon
sockets identified input/output on the rear of the input panel are paralleled within the enclosure.
Tannoy has adopted the conventional wiring standard for the V12HP product :-
