Designed for a wide variety of sound reinforcement applications the Tannoy Di is an ultra compact loudspeaker system
capable of delivering high sound pressure levels with extremely low distortion, resulting in outstanding clarity, definition and
detail. A truly universal solution, the Di offers outstanding durability and resistance to scuffs and knocks. Able to deliver
consistent performance under a wide range of adverse conditions the Di is suited to applications indoors or out, whether it be
a theme bar or theme park. Available in black or white the Di will effectively blend into most backgrounds. Utilisation of the
point source loudspeaker allows the Di to be mounted on a wall or ceiling in either horizontal or vertical orientations without
affecting its performance. A range of hardware options ensures simple and effective installation. Also available with built in
line transformer.
For applications requiring extended low frequency enhancement, a range of Tannoy sub-bass systems are available and can
be used in conjunction with the Di.
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. The user is responsible for fixing the hardware to the surface to ensure safe operation. The fixings must support the
weight of the product – please consult the manual’s specification page for the appropriate weights. Please consult the
relevant construction codes in your region for further information on suitable hardware fixing methods.
6. Some regional construction codes require the use of a secondary method of securing loudspeakers to surfaces to provide
security of a back-up support. A secondary support line should be attached from the safety loop on the rear of the product
to a source point on the wall. Please consult the relevant construction codes in your region.
7. Tannoy will not be held accountable for any damage caused by incorrect installation.
