Behind the classic lock and key secured grille lies a
Tulip WaveguideTM, twin magnet edition of the 300mm
(12") Tannoy Dual ConcentricTM driver with edge
wound voice coils. Renowned for its unique point
source symmetrical dispersion properties, it
incorporates all the latest refinements of this driver
design exclusive to Tannoy. HE, or Hard Edge, refers
to the material used in the construction of the driver
surround. The combination of this and the unique
drive unit chassis earthing facility results in a tighter,
faster and more controlled bass with fluid, transparent
midrange and high frequency performance of
great purity.
The speaker is driven through gold plated captive
link terminals, designed to allow normal or Bi-wire
configurations, and a hard-wired time compensated
crossover network. Superior Van den Hul wiring is
used throughout the Edinburgh HE to maintain the
signal integrity. Treble energy and roll off can both
be adjusted by means of two high current switch
rd
blocks. Exceptional transient performance and smooth
bass response are achieved by the use of a distributed
port reflex system.
Features: 300mm (12") Dual Concentric point source symmetrical
dispersion driver • HE hard edge twin roll fabric driver surround
and driver chassis earthing ensures fluid, open midrange and
clean, detailed high frequencies • Rigid, heavily damped, cabinet
construction providing exceptional strength and rigidity, speeding
up the aural response of the speaker • Extensive internal bracing
strengthens cabinet and reduces colouration, enhancing the
midrange detail, speed and clarity of the bass • Bi-wired, hard
wired adjustable time compensated crossover utilising premium
quality components • Distributed port reflex enclosure design
