Tannoy SYSTEM 15 DMT II User Manual

SYSTEM 15 DMT II MAIN MONITOR

A main monitor system for Recording and Post-production studios where the

requirement is for high performance, natural sound reproduction.

With a single coherent wavefront thanks to the 15" Dual Concentric™ point source

driver, sound presented to the engineers is remarkably distortion free. And with the

enlarged monitoring position provided by this remarkable drivers wide dispersion,

monitoring with the System 15 DMT II is particularly fatigue free.

Mains reference monitoring in
professional facilities, including:

❚ Recording studios
❚ Mobile recording
❚ Broadcast
❚ Post-production
❚ Audio visual
❚ Film studios

NOTES:
(1) ±3dB, measured at 1m in anechoic chamber
(2) Long term power handling capacity as defined in EIA
standard RS426A
(3) Averaged over specified bandwidth for half-space
environment. For anechoic conditions the figure is to be
decreased by 3dB

Tannoy operates a policy of continuous research and
development. The introduction of new materials or
manufacturing methods will always equal or exceed the
published specifications, which Tannoy reserves the right to
alter without prior notice. Please verify the latest
specifications when dealing with critical applications
