VSX 8.2BP
Product description
The Tannoy VSX 8.2BP is a compact, low prole and deceptively powerful band-pass subwoofer,
designed to extend low frequency response and increase system headroom in conjunction with
Tannoy VX and VXP Series full range loudspeakers, as well as offering an ideal low frequency device
for use with many of Tannoy’s other systems, such as VLS Series or DVS Series. Extending overall
frequency response to below 40 Hz, this highly efcient design is capable of providing output
levels normally associated with considerably larger enclosures.
The VSX 8.2BP utilises a pair of high efciency 200 mm (8”) drive units mounted in a compact and
sturdy, black or white painted plywood cabinet. The low-prole of the enclosure design also allows
discreet placement, for instance unobtrusively incorporated into xed furnishings such as underneath
seating or the bar in cafes and bars, for discrete but impressive performance.
The VSX 8.2BP benets from Tannoy’s latest subwoofer design philosophies, optimising tonal
balance and harmonic output through precisely engineered enclosure geometry and innovative
transducer design; ensures well-dened low frequency reinforcement at high sound pressure levels,
with extremely low distortion and power compression.
Features
• Twin 200 mm (8”) drive units mounted in
band-pass conguration
• High performance LF driver design
delivering exceptional bass response
• Ultra-compact for discrete installation, matching
the output of a larger, single 12” device
• New band-pass design delivers higher output,
lower distortion and greater reliability
• Recessed Integrip handles for ease of handling
• Recessed termination panels for ush mounting
of connectors
• Recessed pole-mount locations for use in
portable PA applications
• Rugged plywood construction nished with
textured black or white paint
Applications
• Under-seating in bars & clubs
• Transportation hubs
• High output retail (eg. fashion stores)
• Portable AV/PA
• Stage-front installation
• Multimedia installations (eg. museums, galleries)
• Visitor attractions
• Auditoria
Featuring a rugged and durable birch ply enclosure, with ergonomic Integrip™ carry handles and
integrated, recessed termination panels with NL4 speakON and barrier strip connections for
ease-of-install, the VSX 8.2BP is a highly exible subwoofer. As well as xed install, VSX 8.2BP can
easily be coupled with VX Series and VXP Series and VLS Series column loudspeakers for portable
PA applications thanks to an integrated pole-mount recess and the optional VTH pole mount.
