Tannoy DC100 loudspeakers


Tannoy DC100 

The Tannoy Dual Concentric principle is widely accepted as one of the major technological breakthroughs in the design of loudspeakers.
The Dual Concentric is, in fact, "2-speaker-in one". If you took the grille off any Tannoy Dual Concentric there is what appears to be a single drive unit. Closer examination will show the compression high frequency driver sharing the same chassis as the bass unit. These two separate drive units provide a single xis for the reproduction of sound at all frequencies. The audio signal is supplied to each drive unit by a time compensated crossover, that aligns both high and low frequency sound sources towards a single point on that axis.
The music is clearer and more natural because the real harmonics and dynamics of the instruments and voices are retained, while the stereo image of the original performance is sharper and more convincing.
Tannoy's strong reputation for transducer design within the broadcast and recording industry has been harnessed within the recently designed 8" Dual Concentric drive unit used in the DC100 
Both DC's have excellent frequency response and good dispersion, and their ability to reproduce wide dynamics makes them particularly suitable to be used with the latest CD systems.
With the new DC series, the hi-fi enthusiast can experience all the characteristics and benefits of a major studio monitor in a smaller, cleanly styled enclosure.
