Tannoy iw62 TS User Manual

iw62 TS Subwoofer

Product Description

A high performance in wall subwoofer, the iw62 TS is designed to augment the low
frequency output of an in wall system installation. It uses the same construction and
mechanical installation method to ensure it is a perfect match, both acoustically and
visually, to the Tannoy full range in wall units.

The iw62 TS is unique in that it can operate in either passive or active mode, selectable by
a switch on the front baffle. In active mode an external controller can be used to manage
low frequency extension, the application of equalisation and allowing the crossover point to
be tailored to the rest of the system and room. Additionally the iw62 TS will operate in
stereo or mono mode; easily converted by means of link wires on the circuit board.

Designed to partner the Tannoy iw6 DS, iw6 TDC and iw62 TDC full range in wall
loudspeaker products, the iw6s TS in wall subwoofer is equipped with two 165mm (6.50”)
long throw multi fibre, paper pulp bass drivers to deliver effective low frequency
reinforcement; rated from 29Hz - 110Hz in passive mode with a continuous power handling
of 200W RMS.

The driver and passive frequency dividing network are mounted in an injection moulded,
paintable front baffle manufactured from UV/weather resistant UL94V-0 ABS material.
The excellent structural integrity, when combined with the secure polycarbonate,
self-aligning eight clamp mounting system, ensures a performance enhancing rigid acoustic
coupling with the wall surface. This provides an immensely stable platform for the drivers to
deliver optimum performance. Robust, gold plated spring loaded terminals enable rapid
connection with optimum input signal integrity.

Complementing any style of decor, the perforated metal grille and discreet moulded baffle
can be painted to blend seamlessly with any install environment. This in-wall subwoofer is
capable of delivering impressive results in large residential and commercial applications;
such as small entertainment venues, restaurants, bars, public buildings, board rooms, AV
installations and business music systems.

A steel back can is available as an optional accessory.
