Tannoy Loudspeaker 'Full Performance'

There's a new ceiling-fitted loudspeaker on offer from Tannoy.
The CMS 1201DC is a powerful state-of-the-art large format in-ceiling loudspeaker device conceived, designed and built to complement Tannoy's existing class-leading CMS range.
From the pioneers of point source and large format ceiling speakers the CMS 1201DC is engineered from the ground up with superior full-range performance in mind to handle demanding distributed sound applications such as ballrooms, shopping malls, sports halls, airports and other high ceiling installations.
Built around a brand new evolution of the high power handling (300mm) Dual Concentric point source driver, the CMS 1201DC delivers best-in-class performance for the most even beamwidth and pattern control over the widest range of frequencies of any large format ceiling speaker.
Coupled with exceptional clarity, ultra low distortion, and high SPLs, Tannoy has again raised the bar to give the absolute cutting edge performance in ceiling mounted loudspeaker technology.
The new Dual Concentric drive assembly features a treated mid-bass cone and double rolled cambric surround for high sensitivity, as well as a (34mm) aluminium dome with ferrofluid cooled Neodymium magnet assembly and a newly designed waveguide for the high frequency unit.
These two drivers seamlessly merge into one with the high frequency mounted in the throat of the mid-bass; coincidentally aligning both transducers to a point source.
The result is a smooth, uniform response over a very controlled 90 degree coverage area – even in the highest octaves.
Performs with Ease.
Achieving new standards of full bandwidth coverage control means that the CMS 1201DC can be specified in distributed designs with absolute confidence and located as efficiently as possible, minimising the number of devices typically required to cover a given area, reducing install time and cost.
Each device comprises of three discrete components: the loudspeaker assembly (mounted on ported steel baffle), a separate 79 litre (2.8 cubic feet) steel back-can with multiple mounting points and a white powder-coated steel grille and moulded bevel cover.
The custom engineered powder coated steel back-can has been designed to cater for all conceivable installation possibilities making the CMS 1201DC extremely versatile. Internally dampened with 11m OSB2 board, the addition of the back-can provides exceptional low frequency performance on a par with conventional wooden enclosure loudspeakers - but from an in-ceiling format. Steel mounting lugs allow for fitting to a Unistrut roof rail system in a variety of configurations both directly or via secondary prefixed cross struts.
The device can also be hung via four top-mounted eye bolts, or as a further alternative, the design also caters for a single point central hang via M10 or 3/8 UNC screwed rod - made easy thanks to the slotted mounting saddle on the top of the back-can.
The CMS 1201 is available in both a standard low-impedance variant (CMS 1201DC) and a low insertion loss 60W line transformer-equipped version (CMS 1201DCt) for use on 70V or 100V distributed lines.
