The Tannoy VX 8 is a compact yet powerful full-range loudspeaker that incorporates the brand’s signature dual concentric driver technology into an 8-inch format designed for versatile professional use. This passive loudspeaker is engineered to deliver coherent, point-source audio reproduction suitable for a wide array of applications, including mobile DJ setups, stage monitoring, corporate AV presentations, and distributed audio in fixed installations. Its design philosophy prioritizes sonic accuracy and wide, consistent dispersion, ensuring that both vocals and instruments are reproduced with clarity and natural timbre. The speaker’s relatively compact size and manageable weight make it an excellent choice for applications where space is limited or portability is key, without compromising on the quality of sound expected from professional-grade equipment.

Central to its performance is the 8-inch dual concentric driver, which integrates a 1-inch titanium compression driver within the magnetic assembly of the LF cone. This co-axial configuration ensures that high and low frequencies originate from the same acoustic point, resulting in perfect phase coherence, a single, stable wavefront, and the elimination of lobing and comb-filtering artifacts common in traditional multi-driver designs. The benefits are immediately noticeable: superior speech intelligibility, precise stereo imaging, and a smooth off-axis frequency response. A carefully optimized passive crossover network ensures seamless integration between the LF and HF components, providing a cohesive sonic character that remains balanced at various listening positions and output levels.

Built for durability in demanding environments, the VX 8’s enclosure is constructed from high-density plywood and finished with a rugged, textured coating. It offers multiple mounting options for flexible deployment, including a standard 35mm pole mount socket, integrated M8 threaded rigging points for flying or wall-mounting, and ergonomic handles for easy transport. The connection panel features dual Neutrik NL4 SpeakON connectors wired in parallel, facilitating easy daisy-chaining of multiple cabinets. Combining the sonic advantages of true point-source reproduction with practical, robust construction, the Tannoy VX 8 stands as a highly capable and adaptable loudspeaker solution for professionals seeking high-fidelity sound in a compact, versatile form factor.
