Fault Finding
Tannoy loudspeakers are designed and manufactured to be
reliable. When a fault occurs in a hi-fi system the effect is
always heard through the loudspeakers although they may
not be the source of the fault. It is important to trace the
cause of the problem as accurately as possible. A fault
heard on one source (only CD or tape for instance) is most
unlikely to be a loudspeaker problem. Loudspeakers do not
in themselves generate hum, hiss or rumble although high
quality, wide bandwidth loudspeakers may emphasise such
problems.

Tannoy Service Bulletin
This service bulletin has been drafted to help remove and replace the drive unit from our
TS-300 and TS-500 Active Subwoofer’s, please follow these simply steps on how to
remove the grille to access the woofer. The Grille used on the TS300and TS500 subs is a
flush fit with no mounting points, for service required on the woofer you have to access via
the grille this must be torn to be removed; because of this we have included a grille with
every replacement woofer. If not please contact your Tannoy dealer or contact Tannoy
direct: [e-mail]
1. Tear the grille using a knife as shown in the diagram below.
2. Once ripped, pull the grille frame away from the cabinet.
3. Once Grilled is removed you have access to remove the woofer
Once the woofer has been replaced, simply push on the replacement grille
supplied.
