Clean, natural sound thanks to Dual Concentric driver
The Precision 6D gets much of its clarity from a cast-chassis Tannoy Dual Concentric driver. It's really two drivers properly merged into one, with the high-frequency mounted on the back of the low-frequency unit so that both drivers are on the same axis. As a result sound energy is propagated from the same point and delivered through the center of the low-frequency cone, providing a true point source. The Precision 6D's integrated approach provides a constant time delay over the frequency spectrum, offering better transient performance and sound quality with better harmonic alignment. The crucial benefit at the mix position is the delivery of a more natural and cleaner sound with greatly enhanced intelligibility. Another key benefit of the Precision 6D's dual design is a very wide "sweet spot" with an exceptionally even response throughout the listening area and extraordinary transient response.
Accurate high frequencies from Tannoy's exclusive SuperTweeter
The Tannoy SuperTweeter extends the Precision 6D's amplitude response beyond 20kHz to 51kHz! This corrects the phase response from 8kHz to 20kHz within the audible band. That preserves the harmonic structure of sounds and the stability of the stereo image. The smooth tweeter face plate contours prevent diffraction and cavity effects, making the Precision 6D an exceptionally accurate monitor.
S/PDIF digital input plus analog ins
You can maintain an unbroken signal path all the way to power amps with the Precision 6D. It features a coax input for S/PDIF, plus an additional S/PDIF output for continuation of the signal to the second stereo speaker. Sampling rates of 44.1kHz and 96kHz are supported. The Precision 6D also includes analog inputs on an XLR/TRS combo jack for convenience.
Adjustable low, mid and high-frequency settings
One thing that makes the Precision 6D great for small control rooms or cramped mix environments is its ability to acoustically adapt to its surroundings. A series of DIP switches control low-frequency alignment, mid/near/close field and half/quarter/eighth-space compensation. In addition, you can control the mid band and high-frequency shelving trim.
Stiff, heavy enclosure with special baffle design
Tannoy monitors have always excelled at resonance-free reproduction, and the Precision 6D is no exception. Its 18mm MDF enclosure provides structural stiffness and minimizes coloration. Internally, braces on the sides and rear of the cabinet against the rear of the bass driver provide a rigid reactive mass for the moving cone assembly. That ensures fast, tight bass response and clear midrange. Plus, the 40mm thick front baffle is specially sculpted to keep diffraction to a minimum.
With 75 watts for lows and 36 watts for highs, the Precision 6D serves up high-end sound quality at a price you don't expect from Tannoy!
