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 capab

Cable choice consists mainly of selecting the correct cross sectional area in relation to the cable length and the load impedance. A small cross sectional area would increase the cables series resistance, inducing power loss and response variations (damping factor). Connectors should be wired with a minimum of 2.5 sq. mm (12 gauge) cable. This will be perfectly satisfactory under normal conditions. In the case of very long cable runs the wire size should exceed this, ref

5. Amplification & Power Handling As with all professional loudspeaker systems, the power handling is a function of voice coil thermal capacity. Care should be taken to avoid running the amplifier into clip (clipping is the end result of overdriving any amplifier). Damage to the loudspeaker will be sustained if the amplifier is driven into clip for any extended period of time. Headroom of at least 3dB should be allowed. When evaluating an amplifier, it is important to take into account

8. Arraying As discussed in the previous section, comb filtering is a phenomenon, which cannot not 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 V12HP cabinet greatly simplifies the creation of effective arrays, allowing seamless wide (130 degree) horizontal coverag

SECUR ET – VMY Yoke Bracket The VMY is an adjustable yoke bracket (available in both black and white), allowing the user to fly the Tannoy V12HP loudspeaker in either portrait or landscape orientations using the same bracket (Figures 1 & 2). The Tannoy V12HP loudspeaker is attached to the bracket using the M10 bolts and washers supplied in the accessory pack. Only the screws, fasteners, shakeproof and plain washers specified on figure 3. should be used to ! assemble the VMY br

12.4 SECUR ET – VEB Eyebolt The Tannoy V12HP loudspeaker can be flown with high quality VEB M10 eyebolts with collar to BS4278:1984. The loudspeakers are equipped with internal steel braces, which also double as the flying points, and accept VEB M10 eyebolts. To install the VEB M10 eyebolts remove the original M10 counter sunk screws from the locations you wish to install the VEB M10 eyebolts. Then replace these counter sunk M10 screws with the VEB M10 eyebolts. The M10 insert on t

12.5 SECUR – ET VTH Pole Mount The Tannoy V12HP loudspeaker is fitted as standard with a blanking plate on the base of the cabinet. However, should you ever wish to mount the V12HP onto a standard 35mm pole mount this blanking plate can be quickly and easily removed and replaced by a VTH pole mount. The same screws which secure the blanking plate should be used to secure the VTH in position. 12.6 SECUR – ET VCS Ceiling Saddle VC

13. System Configuration & OEM Controllers 13.1 Passive or Biamp? The V12HP is supplied as standard for passive operation via the internal crossover network and is connected as shown in Figure 1. To reconfigure for Biamp operation simply follow the wiring schematic as shown in Figure 2. This mode of operation bypasses the internal passive crossover network and connects the input seakon connectors directly to the LF & HF sections of the driver separately (see section 3.1 for connection

13.2 Passive System Parameters (optional) With the vast array of digital loudspeaker management systems available it is inevitable that the user may opt to use a controller other than the TX2 & TDX2 as part of a large scale integrated system. In passive mode the V12HP has been designed to need no external equalisation to overcome system limitations. If the V12HP is to be used alone with additional bass enhancement required and have the frequency response limits tighter than +/- 3dB as sta
