Product Description
Conceived, engineered and built with precision in the United Kingdom, VXP Series
represents a brand new evolution in Tannoy’s core philosophies in self-powered
loudspeaker design. The Tannoy VXP 12.2Q features the brand new IDEEA™
(IntelliDrive Energy Efficient Amplifier) integrated power module from Lab.gruppen
The result is an ultra-reliable and efficient, self-powered loudspeaker offering a punchy
and sonically superior solution for medium-scale sound reinforcement. The VXP 12.2Q
has been sonically matched with the wider range of VXP Series models, this allows
consistency in installations where a mix of products is utilised.
The VXP 12.2Q is built around two discrete transducers, 1 x 300 mm (12”) PowerDual™
with Q-Centric waveguide and a 1 x 300 mm (12”) bass driverfor greatly improved LF
extension, mounted within a compact rugged birch plywood cabinet with aesthetically
profiled edges and an Airnet
TM
-backed, powder-coated steel grille. The latest higher
power handling 300 mm (12”) version of Tannoy’s exclusive point source, constant
directivity PowerDual drive unit technology, coupled with the QCW device, brings
best of both worlds – true point source acoustical performance combined with highly
controlled 75 x 40 degree dispersion, resulting in less unwanted shading effects and
optimized forward gain. The driver assembly can be rotated 90 degrees in the cabinet
to allow for versatile mounting without compromise to dispersion requirements.
The perfectly matched integrated Lab.gruppen IDEEA (IntelliDrive Energy Efficient
Amplifier) modules are designed to handle the demands of fixed installation audio,
with the inherent extended duty cycles of around-the-clock operation and very high
performance demands, while offering the durability, unmatched power output and
clarity required by portable applications. To ensure a long and trouble-free service
life, IDEEA modules incorporate extensive features to safeguard internal circuits and
driver compliment.
At the heart of the IDEEA module is a patented Class D output stage capable of high
power levels with very low distortion and minimal current draw – all with a net operating
efficiency in excess of 80%. A universal switching power supply accepts any mains
voltage from 70 – 265V (+/- 10%) at 50 Hz or 60 Hz through the appropriate IEC cord.
In Auto mode, the speaker turns on with signal present and switches to standby mode
after 20 minutes of no input, in doing so reducing power consumption to less than 1 W
(while in standby). Manual control mode allows the speaker to be turned on and off as
required. Also provided is a switchable 90 Hz high-pass filter for use when adding
a subwoofer.
Audio connection is via XLR Input and power via PowerCON (included) on rear panel.
VXP 12.2Q is available in black or white textured paint finish as standard, with
matching grilles, and is also available in custom matched RAL colours as an option.
