Tannoy – E11 – Matching Pair – Luidsprekerset

Tannoy is most often known for its professional models, especially their nearfield, dual-concentric monitors that have become de rigueur on the top of recording consoles. The E11 is a two-way, ported design with a 6.5" woofer and 1" dome tweeter. Both drivers are manufactured by Tannoy, instead of being sourced from a driver manufacturer. The woofer is made from a polyolefin co-polymer, a plastic material with high rigidity and good self-damping properties. To improve power handling and increase sensitivity, the voice-coil is edge-wound on a Kapton former. The surround appears to be made of butyl rubber.The E11's tweeter is a 25mm aluminum-dome unit that sports Tannoy's name on the front plate. The tweeter surround is made from polyamide, which is said to give the driver linear, piston-like characteristics. Tannoy calls this use of two materials "Differential Material Technology." The tweeter's ferrofluid damping is said to contribute to the driver's high first-breakup mode.Tweeters are dented but sound goodCrossover frequency is 3kHz, with first-order low-pass and second-order high-pass slopes. Polyester caps and iron-dust core inductors are hard-wired into the system. Internal bracing helps reduce panel resonances. The E11 is unusual for an inexpensive loudspeaker in that two pairs of input terminals are... lees verder bij Catawiki
