Tannoy VQ 64MH Specification Sheet

VQ 64MH
Product Description
The modular design approach allows the sound system designer to create seamless andpredictable arrays, or they can be used singly as part of large distributed systems. VQ 64MH addresses the requirement for compact dimensions without compromising performance in any way.
VQ DF (Down Firing) elements which are available in various patterns will integrate seamlessly with the VQ MH enclosures to facilitate tight pack arrays, no more unsightly spaces between separate cabinets in order to splay.
VQ MB or VS 15DR elements can be added to extend bandwidth and pattern control to lower frequencies.
The VQ 64MH can be congured for use in Single-Amp or Bi-Amp mode, in conjunction with asuitable digital signal processor (DSP).
Horn design involves balancing compromise…..until now.
Our unique approach in keeping what is effectively a Dual Concentric behind a single horn gives us many performance advantages. Performance of the VQ 64MH in terms of accuracy & sound quality is second to none. The VQ horn design principles provide denitive andmeasurable advantages over multiple-horn and co-axial designs.
Each VQ 64MH incorporates a 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 centres 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.
Features
• PSW™ Waveguide” - Point source design (Patent applied for).
• Excellent Phase Coherence
• Perfect time alignment without the associated problems
of multi source interference
• Compact Dimensions
• Class leading directivity characteristics
• Extremely high sensitivity, therefore high SPL’s can be achieved with a very modest amount of amplier power
• Exceptional transient response
Applications
• High output long throw applications
• Large Houses of Worship
• Large Corporate AV applications
• Stadiums & Arenas
• Dance Clubs
• Live sound – concert halls, theatres, open-air venue
For outdoor applications, weather resistant enclosures which incorporate stainless steel hardware are available.

Architectural specications
The loudspeaker shall consist of a Dual Concentric™ Compression driver with a 3.5” Midrange voice coil and a 2” High Frequency voice coil, both mounted in a common subsystem with a common 2” exit. This Dual Concentric™ compression driver shall be coupled to a PSW™ (Point Source Waveguide) constant directivity horn operating over the frequency range of 400Hz to 23kHz.The loudspeaker shall be user congurable for Bi-Amp operation via the rear input panel. The loudspeaker shall be trapezoidal in shape.
Performance of the loudspeaker, using the recommended electronic control shall meet or exceed the following criteria: In Bi-amp mode the Mid/High section shall produce a sound pressure level of 115dB SPL on axis at 1 meter with a power input of 1 Watt, and shall be capable of producing a peak output of 144dB SPL on axis at 1 meter. In Bi-amp mode the Mid/High section shall handle 400 Watts of amplier power and shall have a nominal impedance of 8 Ohms.The High Frequency section shall handle 180 Watts of amplier power and shall have a nominal impedance of 8 Ohms. The dispersion of the loudspeaker shall be 60 (horizontal) x 40 (vertical) degrees (-6dB). The enclosure shall be of birch plywood construction and internally braced. The enclosure shall be tted with eight integral carrying handles, and twelve M10 inserts for ying hardware. The enclosure shall not exceed the following dimensions (H x W x D): 510mm x 694mm x 515mm (20.01” x 27.32” x 20.28”).
The loudspeaker shall be the Tannoy...VQ 64MH.
