6. Crossovers

For optimal performance the B475 has been designed to operate with Tannoy Install or Transportable series, e.g. i12/T12, i15 and T300, where overall system control is achieved by utilising the TDX2 system controller. The TDX2 has been factory preset to provide the recommended cross-over points, delays and overall system balance. Please refer to the TDX2 manual for operation. Alternatively, Tannoy TX1, TX2 and TX3 system controllers can be used.

If you intend using an alternative loudspeaker management system (e.g. BSS™, Klark Teknik™, XTA™ etc) please contact your distributor or visit our website, www.tannoy.com for the correct parameter settings or refer to the recommended crossover points in the technical specifications section of this manual.

7. Equalisation

The B475 loudspeaker is designed to need no equalisation or correction to overcome system limitations. As a result, it will only need equalisation to compensate for difficult acoustic environments.

Over equalisation can reduce system headroom, and introduce phase distortion resulting in greater problems than cures. If equalisation is required then it should be applied gently and smoothly. Violent equalisation will be detrimental to the overall sound quality.

8. Flying

The B475 utilises convenient flying points as well as 2 MAN pullback points allowing for ease of installation and flexibility with the highest levels of safety. As with any flying system, safety can only be guaranteed when all precautions have been implemented correctly. A pole mount is also provided for flying a mid/high cabinet in the air.

NOTE: The installation of this product must be carried out in conformity with local building codes and standards. If necessary, consult your local safety standards officer before installing any product. Alternatively, check any laws or bylaws. Tannoy will not be held responsible for any damage caused by the improper installation of any flying gear or loudspeaker.
