iw6 DS
Tannoy adopts a policy of continuous improvement and product specification is subject to change iW6DC data file issue:1.06 // 15.01.08
The Tannoy iw6 DS is a full bandwidth in wall speaker system, using a 165mm (6.50") bass
and mid-range driver and a 25mm (1.00") WideBand™ high frequency unit, designed for
installation into standard stud partition wall systems. It may also be used in cavity wall
installations constructed with standard thickness drywall as well as a wide range of other
wall construction types with a surface thickness of up to 25mm (1.00”).
The bass and mid-range driver of the iw6 DS is built around an immensely strong chassis;
the rigidity of which controls the energy created by its long throw with ease. This is a crucial
factor in creating a drive unit capable not only of high power delivery and tremendous bass
output, but also of great subtlety and finesse.
The class leading performance of this in wall speaker is further enhanced by the inclusion
of a 25mm (1.00”) Tannoy WideBand™ high frequency unit, with titanium dome with
neodymium magnet system, to extend the bandwidth to over 50k z.
This high power handling, wide bandwidth unit is specifically designed for applications
requiring the combination of premium sonic quality for music and speech reinforcement
and exceptional reliability and intelligibility.
The drivers and passive frequency dividing network are mounted in an injection moulded,
paintable front baffle manufactured from UV/weather resistant UL94V-0 ABS material. The
class leading performance is further enhanced by the inclusion of six self aligning, spring
loaded clamps; allowing for quick install but also for simple removal or reorientation of the
loudspeaker. The rigidity of the clamps and baffle combination crucially provides the
acoustically optimum bond to the wall surface without risk of distortion to the baffle itself.
Gold plated spring loaded terminals are provided for ease of installation and a steel back
can is available as an optional installation accessory. Complementing any style of decor,
the perforated metal grille and discreet moulded baffle can be painted to blend seamlessly
with any environment.
