The Dual Concentric Tannoys have two magnets systems (or motors), one for the main paper cone and the other for a HF horn integrated through the pole piece. If you locked out of Lenovo ThinkPad/X1 Yoga/Yaga/Ideapad 330/Thinkpad X1 Carbon. These don’t look like the components that go in such competitively-priced speakers, but rather, speakers that cost much more. The Tannoy Monitor Gold is 12' with 93/95 dB free standing sensitivity so a back loaded horn was needed to lift that to closer to 100 dB.

ELAC believes that the only parts of a speaker that should be moving are the speaker drivers themselves.Ĭount the parts and look at them closely. Developed by Elei Boaz and licensed to Goodmans Loudspeakers, Inductive Coupling Technology (ICT) was an intriguing approach to the old point. This bracing greatly reduces cabinet vibration, which causes unwanted coloration to the sound. Whilst Tannoys Dual Concentric layout and KEFs Uni-Q drivers are well known in terms of point-source technology, another way of approaching the problem came and largely went in the 1980s and 1990s. The cabinets of the F5 floorstander, the C5 center channel, the S10EQ and S12EQ subwoofers incorporate specially designed internal bracing to add stiffness and strength to the cabinet’s outer walls.

The waveguide surrounding the new ELAC high-frequency driver features a custom, deep spheroid profile to improve directivity control and shield the dome tweeter from cabinet diffraction modes inherent in traditional box enclosures.Ī custom multi-element crossover with high-grade components in each speaker ensures smooth transition between the drivers.Įvery ELAC enclosure is engineered for the long run with thick MDF outer walls and a luxurious textured vinyl finish. Middle: Actually one of the units had the compression driver voice coil stuck at one side in the magnet gab - and this driver has probably been delivering the 'Tannoy sound' for decades with a major 10 dB dip around 2 kHz as can be seen below.

SILK-DOME TWEETER WITH deep-spheroid custom waveguide The Tannoy VNET12 comprises one 12 inch 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. This added strength means arriving at designs that achieve a broader bandwidth with smoother response. Aramid fiber offers a superior strength-to-weight ratio and improved damping characteristics over conventional paper or plastic drivers. Add a Debut powered subwoofer and you have a serious, full-range system that delivers sound that's in the big league.Ĭustom-designed WOOFER with aramid-fiber coneĪramid fiber is employed in the woofers of all ELAC Debut passive speaker systems. With its custom drivers and floorstanding design, the Debut F5 is a great choice for a serious two-channel rig or as the nucleus of a multi-channel setup. 5.25-inch Aramid-Fiber Floorstanding Speakers
