White Paper Z600

Key functions and features

Two displays

The Z600 features two displays. When in the open position, the user can enjoy the ultimate viewing experience afforded by the 65,536 full colour LCD. The LCD has 128x160 pixels and is a 2” film diode (TFD) type which is driven by a diode as opposed to a transistor. The display has a 16 bits pixel mem- ory depth. Camera pictures, picture messages and gaming are all enhanced by the crisp, sharp col- ours afforded by the TFD. The screen also offers the user maximum information with the least scroll- ing.

When in the closed position, a status display with 91x29 pixels is visible. This black & white display has a blue background and lets you see who is calling when a call comes in and also shows infor- mation such as time, network and battery status.

Built-in camera

The built-in camera is capable of taking still pic- tures up to common image format (CIF) resolution (352x 288 pixels) and 24 bit colour depth. The lens is recessed into the front cover of the Z600. The viewfinder will fill up the whole screen, irrespective of the resolution at which the picture is taken. A dedicated hardware button provides fast access to the camera application.

Images are stored in the phone’s filing system and are therefore available for other applications to use. The number of images that can be stored depends on the available file space, which is shared with other applications. The viewfinder will give an esti- mation of the number of images remaining, assum-

ing that all of the free storage is available for the camera application and using the current settings for size and quality. Approximate JPEG file sizes are 20 kbytes for CIF.

Saved images may be viewed in the image viewer application, and are available for use by other applications in Z600 such as MMS and e-mail.

The camera is optimised for ‘point-and-shoot’ speed. The first press on the CommuniCam button will switch on the viewfinder. Each subsequent press on the button will then act as a shutter release and take a picture.

QuickShareTM

The Sony Ericsson QuickShareTM is the smartest, fastest and easiest way to share images. By com- bining several imaging features and capabilities in

the Z600, QuickShareTM lets you take a picture with two rapid clicks and then in four further steps send it anywhere in the world.

It is also possible to exchange pictures directly over Bluetooth connections and even drag and drop pictures to and from the Z600 and a PC.

Z600 specifications

The Tannoy Z600 is a remarkable loudspeaker that embodies the company’s commitment to high-performance audio, blending classic craftsmanship with innovative technologies. Designed for both professional and home listening environments, the Z600 serves as an exemplary model in Tannoy’s extensive range of audio solutions.

One of the standout features of the Z600 is its dual-concentric driver design. This technology has been a hallmark of Tannoy's engineering for decades, ensuring that sound is emitted from a single point source. This results in an incredibly coherent soundstage with exceptional imaging, allowing listeners to experience audio with a sense of depth and clarity that is often absent in traditional speaker designs.

The Z600 further enhances its audio reproduction capabilities through the use of high-quality drivers. It houses a 6.5-inch bass driver paired with a 1-inch high-frequency driver. The combination enables the speaker to handle a wide frequency range, delivering rich bass tones while maintaining crystal clear highs. The speaker's crossover design is meticulously crafted to ensure seamless integration between the bass and treble drivers, which contributes to a balanced and natural sound signature.

Equipped with a robust MDF cabinet, the Z600 is designed to minimize unwanted resonances and provide a solid base for sound reproduction. The cabinet's architecture is complemented by a stylish finish, available in various veneers, allowing it to blend well with any modern or classic décor.

Installation options are versatile, featuring bi-wiring capabilities that enhance the speaker's performance. This feature allows for separate connections to the bass and treble drivers, optimizing audio quality and enabling advanced customization based on user preference.

Another notable characteristic of the Tannoy Z600 is its wide dispersion pattern. This attribute ensures that sound remains consistent and clear even when listening from different positions in the room. This makes the Z600 an excellent choice for both casual listening and critical monitoring in professional setups.

With its combination of innovative technologies, premium materials, and expert craftsmanship, the Tannoy Z600 stands out as a top-tier choice for audio enthusiasts. Whether for home entertainment or studio monitoring, it offers a listening experience that is both engaging and immersive, making it a worthy addition to any audio system.
