3.0: UNPACKING AND VISUAL CHECKS
Every Tannoy VNET“ product is carefully tested and inspected before being packaged and leaving the factory. After unpacking your loudspeaker, please inspect for any exterior physical damage, and save the carton and any relevant packaging materials in case the loudspeaker again requires packing and shipping. In the event that damage has been sustained in transit notify your dealer immediately.
3.1: PRELIMINARY RECOMMENDATION
A word of warning on high sound levels - these speakers are capable of generating high output levels over sustained periods of time and such levels, over 95dBspl for 8 hours per day, can eventually cause permanent hearing loss. Since Tannoy loudspeakers have a
For continuous exposure we recommend the occasional use of a sound level meter. This should be capable of integrating the sound level over a period of exposure according to noise control standards and used just to check that noise levels are always within safety limits.

5.0: OPERATION
The range of products are fully integrated designs, all speaker management functions which include driver EQ, dynamic limiting, & crossover functions are carried out within the DSP, therefore the need for external amplification, active crossovers and limiters is not required. The only input from the user is crossover between full range cabinets & subwoofers, and room equalization (if necessary).
When routing audio, units may be daisy chained together by linking the Input/link XLR connectors. It is necessary to have power local to each speaker, as it is not possible to daisy chain the AC power connectors.
