TANNOY VXP Series Operation Manual rev 1 0 1 9 5 5 Audio Connections The signal input amp link connectors are fully balanced When connecting a balanced signal be sure to wire to the following standard SIGNAL XLR CONNECTOR Hot Pin 2 Cold Pin 3 Shield GND Pin 1 In a standard balanced interconnection there are two signal conductors and a shield The shield is normally referenced to ground at one or both ends Many times the shield is lifted at one end usually at the input to eliminate ground loops or noise This should be done only as a last resort although it will reduce hum the shields can act as radio antennas and pick up radio frequency interference from the environment Multiple enclosures may be driven from a single audio source simply plug the signal source output into the first XLR input socket and patch that speaker s XLR link to the next speaker s XLR input socket 5 6 Gain Structure The VXP gain structure is designed to allow a low level source device to drive the loudspeaker to full output Maximum specified SPL will be achieved with a 4 dBu input signal There is sufficient headroom in the signal path to accommodate input levels of 10 or even 20 dBu with high quality compression engaged as needed to maintain sonic integrity without clipping To avoid any compression or when a lower SPL output is desired the input attenuator on the rear panel can be used to reduce gain sensitivity 5 7 Limi
6. Using Tannoy Professional hardware for any purpose other than that indicated in this guide is considered to be improper use Such use can be very dangerous overloading modifying damaging or assembling in a manner other than that clearly stated in the manual Tannoy Professional hardware will compromise safety The component parts of any Tannoy Professional hardware device must only be assembled using the accessory kits supplied and in strict compliance with the Operation Manual The use of other accessories or non approved methods of assembly may result in an unsafe hardware system by reducing the load safety factor Welding or any other method of permanently fixing hardware components together or to the integral fixing points in the cabinet should never be used Whenever a Tannoy Professional loudspeaker is fixed to a surface using a Tannoy Professional hardware device the installer must ensure that the surface is capable of safely and securely supporting the load The hardware employed must be safely and securely attached both to the loudspeaker and also to the surface in question in accordance with the manual using only the fixing holes provided as standard and covered in the manual Secure fixings to the building structure are vital Seek help from architects structural engineers or other specialists if in any doubt All loudspeakers flown in theatres nightclubs conference centres or other places of work and entertainment must be provided
