110 SERIES SUBWOOFERS AND INPUT MODULES

This manual is intended for the owner, operator or installer of Tannoy 110 Series Subwoofers. It is a guide for installing,
setting up and operating the 110 Series in accordance with established codes and practices available at the time of publication.
It does not and can not detail all possible mounting or wire configurations. The end user is advised to retain the advice and
services of a qualified contractor who is familiar with local codes and trained in the installation of Tannoy professional audio
systems.

The 110 family of subwoofers has been engineered to deliver low frequency extension and impact from a concealed ceiling
mounted position.

The 110 series subwoofers feature a 10” long excursion driver capable of low end response down to 31 Hz and power
handling in excess of 100 Watts. Its design is fully complementary to any Tannoy full range wall or ceiling mount loudspeaker.

Two different subwoofer cabinet designs and five different input “modules” offer a wide range of combinations that can meet
almost any installation challenge, and fit into any indoor environment.

Today’s sound reinforcement systems - whether in commercial or institutional environments - must handle program material
that demands high impact, high fidelity audio reproduction. At the same time, they must be nearly invisible. The Tannoy 110
Series of subwoofers meet all of these criteria without compromise.

110TB (TILE BRIDGE) CABINET

Simple yet sophisticated, the 110TB is the first product of its kind: a true ceiling mounted
subwoofer. Engineered to deliver low frequency extension (-3dB @ 31 Hz) and impact
from a concealed ceiling mounted position, the 110TB integrates almost invisibly into
any indoor environment by using a standard air handling vent cover as a speaker grille.
The easy to install 110TB drops seamlessly into a 2’ x 2’ ceiling tile without any special
construction requirements. Each corner of the cabinet is fitted with a seismic tether
point. This system can also be flown in free space via 3/8” threaded rod, chain or aircraft
cable. Fire rating is NFPA class A. Whether your application calls for low level warmth
or high SPL slam, the 110TB provides the required punch.

CABINET OPTIONS

110SR (SHEET ROCK) CABINET

The second in the Tannoy family of true ceiling mounted subwoofers, the 110SR is
engineered to deliver low frequency extension (-3dB @ 31 Hz) and impact from a
concealed position. It is specifically designed for flush mount in sheet rock ceilings,
walls, overhangs or any position offering adequate clearance and suitable structural
support. The 110SR features seismic tether points, and safe and secure installation
with a sturdy pre-installation ring. The pre-installation ring is available separately for
new construction where the sheet rock installers are in ahead of the contractor. A unique
benefit of the 110SR is that it remains serviceable, and fully removable, from the ground
after installation by simply removing the low profile grille. Fire rating is NFPA class A.
