The Definition Install DC6i has been designed around the unique Tannoy Dual Concentric™
drive unit to bring class leading performance to a wide range of installation applications;
from media rooms to home theatre and boardrooms through to high end marine interiors
these loudspeakers deliver class leading accuracy, sensitivity and dynamics.
Characteristic of the Dual Concentric™ design is a very wide 'sweet spot' with an
exceptionally even response throughout the listening area, as well as an extraordinary
transient response; reasons enough for this phase accurate Tannoy designed drive unit to
have been the choice of professional studio engineers all over the world for many years.
The Dual Concentric™ is effectively two drivers properly merged into one where, unlike
ordinary drive units, the high frequency unit is positioned on the back of the low frequency
driver. As a result they are on same axis, so ensuring that sound energy is effectively
propagated from the same point and delivered through the centre of the low frequency cone
as true point source. Such integration optimises reproduction quality by providing a constant
time delay over the frequency spectrum, exceptional transient performance, wide dispersion
and superior harmonic alignment; all of which delivers to the listening position a natural,
clean and integrated sound with greatly enhanced intelligibility, sound staging and dynamics.
This compact MDF cabinet is vented and rigidly constructed with extensive bracing to be
acoustically inert. The speaker is designed to be hidden within a custom designed
installation; mounted on wall either behind the screen or acoustically transparent decorative
panels with no appreciable loss of performance. The unit can be mounted either horizontally
or vertically using the integral keyhole mounts and the supplied wall plate.
Designed to be used in left, centre or right locations the DC6i is capable of explosive
dynamics with stunning detail in both music and movie application in vast array of listening
and viewing environments.
