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. VX 8 builds on the foundation of the highly successful and
ubiquitous V8, justly renowned worldwide for its exceptional performance and
versatility. Now incorporating significant upgrades, the successor VX 8 offers a
compact yet punchy and sonically vibrant solution for small-to-medium-scale live
reinforcement as well as for demanding BGM systems in – for example – fashion
retail outlets, bars, and small clubs. The VX 8 is acoustically matched to the wider
range of VX Series models, making it a flexible support component within much
larger installations.
The VX 8 is built around a single 200 mm (8”) Dual Concentric™ driver mounted
within a compact, rugged birch plywood cabinet with aesthetically profiled edges and
an airnet-backed, powder-coated steel grille. The latest high power-handling version
of Tannoy’s exclusive point source, constant directivity Dual Concentric technology
ensures high power output with high sensitivity and exceptional efficiency. This unique
configuration also delivers optimum coverage, exceptional forward gain and excellent
acoustic impedance characteristics. Symmetrical dispersion characteristics enhance
speaker placement flexibility, allowing vertical or horizontal mounting of single or
multi-cabinet arrays without any compromise in sound quality.
