Introducing the X Factor

Tannoy’s renowned V Series defined a new standard in loudspeaker design when introduced to the market in 2002, quickly becoming an established favourite of contractors working in the installed sound market as well as proving to be a versatile portable AV and live sound loudspeaker. Now the bar is about to be raised by several notches. VX Series advances Tannoy loudspeaker development even

further, setting new benchmarks in versatility and acoustic excellence. With an expanded range of enclosures and transducer compliments, the new VX Series combines next-generation Dual Concentric™ driver technology with smart, ergonomic, portable and install-friendly cabinet designs, enhanced build quality, and carefully thought-out functionality.

VX Series delivers that critical advantage. We call it the “X Factor”.

Power of partnership

In addition to an expanded passive range, the “X Factor” extends into self-powered loudspeakers by integrating amplification. The product of tour-honed design experience, the world renowned manufacturer’s ultra-reliable amplifier technologies perfectly complement the acoustic excellence of Tannoy loudspeakers. The result is the all-new VXP Series: audible superiority in a self-powered box.

With VX Series and VXP Series loudspeakers, Tannoy raises the bar – yet again.

VX Series

Passive sound reinforcement

Conceived, engineered and built with precision in the United Kingdom, VX Series represents the latest evolution of Tannoy’s core philosophies in professional loudspeaker design. With 10 passive models in the range, each with the company’s acclaimed Dual Concentric point-source driver at their heart, VX delivers class-leading acoustic performance in an aesthetically refined and robust plywood enclosure. Each model is tailor-designed to satisfy specific applications, ranging from small format corporate AV to demanding high SPL nightclub and live sound reinforcement. Versatility within the range is assured with the introduction of brand new cabinet and transducer compliments. These include models with an additional driver for LF enhancement as well as HP (High Power handling) models and high-directivity Dual Concentric variants featuring Tannoy’s innovative new Q-Centric Waveguide™ (QCW™).
