A Tannoy SuperTweeter is incorporated into the design of all Dimension models, not only to resolve fine detail of high
frequency information but also to effectively enhance the listening experience throughout the whole frequency range. The
Dimension SuperTweeter creates an increased immediacy, airiness and impact making music sound more natural and true
to life.
Music contains transient information and rich harmonics beyond the range of human hearing for pure tones. Even bass notes
have leading edge transients reaching 30kHz. Operating between the roll-off point of the Dual Concentric™ high frequency
unit and 54kHz, the Dimension SuperTweeter will accurately reproduce the leading edge of individual notes allowing the
listener to experience the entire bandwidth information of instruments.
In addition, by extending the frequency response by two octaves corrects time and phase response within the bandwidth of
normal human hearing. Taking these acoustical phase anomalies beyond the range of human hearing adds realism to the
soundstage by improving imaging and placement of instruments.
WIDEBAND TECHNOLOGY
Thank you for selecting Tannoy loudspeakers developed in the UK by our dedicated team of design engineers. They are the
choice of discriminating music lovers the world over. Musical excellence is designed into our loudspeakers from the start.
Careful selection of the very best components combined with strict quality control procedures in the production process
ensures this level of excellence is maintained.
To gain maximum performance from your loudspeakers, please take time to read this owner's manual in full before installation.
Once you have set up your new loudspeakers please complete and return the registration document - this does not limit your
legal rights.
Loudspeakers are electromechanical devices that 'run-in' through use; performance will therefore improve after an initial
period of 24hrs use. Once they have been further run-in over a longer period, there will be clear enhancement of the stereo
imaging, mid-band quality and bass performance characteristics.
We are confident that you will continue to enjoy your new Tannoy Dimension loudspeakers for many years to come.
