About the Tannoy DVS 6-WH 6" Coaxial Surface-Mount Loudspeaker for Installation Applications (White)
The Tannoy DVS 6-WH is a professional 6-inch coaxial surface-mount loudspeaker finished in white, designed for versatile sound reinforcement in a wide array of commercial installation projects. Utilizing a true coaxial driver design, this loudspeaker mounts a 1-inch aluminum dome tweeter concentrically within a 6-inch treated paper cone woofer, creating an acoustically coherent point source. This configuration ensures precise time alignment and phase coherence, resulting in clear, articulate sound with a wide and uniform dispersion pattern. The white, low-profile enclosure is engineered for discreet installation on walls or ceilings, making it an ideal choice for background music, paging, and speech reinforcement in environments such as retail stores, restaurants, healthcare facilities, offices, and educational institutions where visual integration and clear audio are both priorities.
The DVS 6-WH is built for both performance and installation flexibility. It features a rigid, die-cast aluminum chassis that provides a stable platform for the driver and minimizes unwanted resonance. The loudspeaker is equipped with a built-in multi-tap transformer, enabling operation on 70V/100V constant-voltage lines for scalable commercial audio systems, as well as an 8-ohm low-impedance setting for direct connection to standard amplifiers. Multiple power tap settings allow installers to precisely match the output level to the specific acoustic requirements and ambient noise levels of each zone, ensuring even coverage without the need for excessive equalization. The paintable, steel mesh grille can be finished to match interior décor, allowing the speaker to blend seamlessly into its surroundings.
Acoustically, the DVS 6-WH delivers a balanced and natural sound suitable for both music and speech. The coaxial design minimizes lobing and comb-filtering effects, providing a smooth off-axis response for consistent tonal quality throughout the coverage area. For audio consultants and installers seeking a reliable, high-performance surface-mount loudspeaker that offers the installation versatility of constant-voltage operation and the sonic benefits of coaxial technology in a discreet white finish, the Tannoy DVS 6-WH offers a robust and practical solution. It provides clear, full-range audio that meets the demands of professional installed sound systems while maintaining an unobtrusive presence.
