VQ 60-BK

Tannoy

Designed for accurate sound reproduction, the Tannoy VQ 60 is a passive 3-way dual 12" loudspeaker with a dual concentric mid-high section that offers high output and optimal phase coherence for high-performance installation applications. The VQ 60's full-range output produces extremely powerful audio signals with class-leading pattern control. The 60 conical dispersion allows installations of tightly packed point-source clusters for wide coverage while maintaining the venue's aesthetics and sight lines.The VQ 60 has a 1300W continuous (5200W peak) power handling. The dual 12" woofers are arranged in a semi-horn loaded design, while the dual concentric 3.5" and 1.75" diaphragm compression drivers provide clear mid- and high-frequency reproduction. The maximum SPL is a massive 144 dB peak, plenty of volume to cover hundreds of patrons. The VQ 60 can be configured for use in Bi-Amp or Tri-Amp mode, in conjunction with a Lake LM26/44 digital signal processor (DSP) or Lab Gruppen PLM+ or D series platforms, with factory presets from the Lake Load Library.At a Glance 3-way full-range large format loudspeaker for high-performance installation applications1300W continuous, 5200W peak powerDual 12" low-frequency drivers in a semi horn-loaded configurationDual concentric 3.5" and 1.75" diaphragm compression drivers for mid- and high-frequency reproductionPatented PSW waveguide technology provides acoustic center alignment for coherent wavefront at horn throatPhase-coherent point source provides exceptional transient response and dispersion control60 conical dispersion allows installation of tightly packed point-source clustersPrecise time alignment eliminates interference from multiple driver sourcesUser configurable for bi-amp and tri-amp operationExtremely efficient design provides high SPL for modest power inputModular design for versatile and compact cluster configurationsInternally braced birch plywood enclosureFinished with hard wearing semimatte black paintRugged powder coated perforated steel mesh grilleIntegral M10 rigging points for ease of installation8 handles are ergonomically integrated into cabinetOptional vertical flyware with 10:1 safety ratio (available separately)speakON NL4 and barrier strip connectors for input and link outputExceptional Sound and Reliability Performance of the VQ 60 in terms of accuracy and sound quality is second to none. The VQ horn design principles provide definitive and measurable advantages over multiple-horn and coaxial designs.The VQ 60 incorporates unique driver technology to radiate a coherent single point source for superior dispersion control when coupled to a PSW (Point Source Waveguide). This advanced design aligns the acoustical centers of the transducers providing a single coherent wavefront emanating from the throat.The PSW waveguide achieves an optimum balance of extremely well-controlled coverage, smooth frequency response, and natural sound character.The low-frequency section offers high power handling and low power compression for high continuous SPL capability.
