Tannoy Precision 6D

Tannoy’s active Precision series blends old and new technologies to superb effect. Huw Price listens in...

Price: £799.00
Manufacturer: Tannoy
Website: http://www.tannoy.com


Tannoy’s Dual Concentric speaker designs first appeared on the market back in 1947. The principle is simple to grasp: imagine recording an instrument in a room – the microphone picks up all its information from one point in space. Now, if that same sound is played back through a conventional two-driver monitor, the high-frequency content comes from the tweeter and the low-frequency content comes from the woofer – they’re physically separate. What’s more, the same information will be generated from two separate points simultaneously at the crossover frequencies.
