Tannoy Launches VQ Loudspeaker Range

SOURCE: Tannoy · RELEASED: 5/30/2008

Tannoy (Booth C3857) is launching the VQ Series, an expanding range of loudspeakers designed for any application where precise directional control, outstanding sonic performance, and high SPLs are critical issues, such as large corporate AV systems, stadiums, large dance clubs, live concert halls, theaters and open-air venues.

Why the “Q” in VQ? The Q factor is a mathematical expression indicating directionality of the source. Larger Q factor values denote more directional sources. As the products will range from well defined, very wide, to narrow dispersion patterns, Tannoy feels the Q is a great descriptor, as the company is not only catering to the Hi Q market.

Utilizing precision engineering and design, the VQ series can produce enough power and clarity to be used individually, maintaining the aesthetics of buildings, unlike line array solutions. VQ incorporates a unique driver technology to radiate a coherent single point source (400Hz-23kHz) for superior pattern control when coupled to a Point Source Waveguide (PSW). This advanced design aligns the acoustical centers of the transducers providing a single coherent wavefront emanating from the throat. The MF/HF transducer loads into a large proprietary designed common horn (patent pending).

Tannoy VQ delivers a huge performance advantage when compared to acoustic sources which consist of an HF compression driver and separate midrange driver each with their own horn.
