SATELLITES and CENTRE CHANNEL
DRIVER TECHNOLOGY
Dual Concentric™
Tannoy Dual Concentric™drivers have been incorporated into the Arena system. Intensive research and development has produced an all-new version of this
proven technology that builds upon the legendary performance of this exclusive Tannoy driver design.
The time coherent, point source and constant directivity nature of the dispersion characteristics inherent in the Dual makes it an accepted industry standard
in studio monitoring. By exceeding the rigorous demands of the recording and mastering environment Tannoy can ensure that playback performance in the home
for multi channel home cinema, is strictly controlled to accurately reflect the sound engineers artistry. In nature all sounds emanate from a single point in space.
The high frequency unit of the Dual, centrally mounted in the throat of the main mid/bass driver, is so positioned as to acoustically replicate this single point source;
delivering an incredibly natural sound with an incredibly wide imaging ‘sweet spot’ that creates an expansive soundstage with remarkably focused placement
of images.
WIDEBAND™Technology
Tannoy has incorporated its own WideBand™technology into the design of these drivers. Not only does this exceptional in-house technology resolve fine detail of
high frequency information but it also effectively enhances the listening experience throughout the whole frequency range. The WideBand™high frequency system
creates an increased immediacy, airiness and impact, making music and movie sound more natural and true to life.
Sounds contain transient information and rich harmonics beyond the range of human hearing for pure tones. Even low frequencies have leading edge transients reaching
30kHz. The Tannoy Arena WideBand™high frequency unit will accurately reproduce the leading edge of individual sounds allowing the listener to experience the entire
bandwidth, by extending the frequency response to 54kHz.
In addition, the extension of the frequency response, by fully two octaves, corrects time and phase response within the bandwidth of normal human hearing. Taking these
acoustical phase anomalies beyond the audible range adds realism to the soundstage through improvements in imaging and the placement of sounds.

CONNECTIONS
Using the supplied twin core cable,
connect each channel to the
appropriate output of your AV receiver,
observing polarity - positive to
positive and negative to negative (or
red to red and black to black).
The supplied cable has the negative
( - ) core marked by a black line.
If additional cable is required, your
dealer will be able to advise on a
suitable type.
Additional satellite and centre
speakers are available, should you
wish to expand your system.

The centre channel may be placed
either on top of or below the
television or monitor and the front
and rear speakers positioned as
shown on a suitable table or shelf.
All speakers (with the exception of
the subwoofer) are magnetically
shielded to avoid colour distortion
to the television, but as some sets
are more sensitive to interference
than others, some experimentation
in placement may be required,
or the use of the optional table stand
to space the centre speaker further
from the television.
For the satellites, an optional
combined table stand and wall
bracket is available, along
with a floor stand, while a dedicated
table stand/ wall bracket is
available for the centre channel.
Please consult your authorised
Tannoy dealer.
