Description
12″ PowerDual Full Range Loudspeaker with Low Frequency Driver and Q-Centric Waveguide for Portable and Installation Applications
The VX 12.2Q is a new class of device that delivers high SPL, low distortion audio coverage in a complete high performance loudspeaker cabinet. It provides a high impact solution for medium-to-large scale sound reinforcement in high-SPL applications such as bars and clubs, as well as being well suited for mid-scale portable/live PA applications. Thanks to its twin driver design for extended low frequency reproduction and flexible mounting options, the VX 12.2Q is also ideally suited for use complimenting much larger systems, making it an excellent choice for both installed and portable applications. The VX 12.2Q can also be configured for bi-amp operation.
PowerDual Driver
The 2,000-Watt 305 mm (12″) version of TANNOY’s VX Series exclusive point source loudspeakers, VX 12.2Q’s PowerDual driver ensures high power output with high sensitivity and exceptional efficiency. A proprietary Q-Centric waveguide is provided for tighter pattern control, delivering precise 75º horizontal x 40º vertical dispersion for optimum coverage, exceptional forward gain plus the added benefit of improved low-mid extension from the twin driver configuration. An additional 305 mm (12″) low frequency driver is employed to provide extended bass response.
Performance Applications
VX 12.2Q’s trapezoidal enclosure design provides a multitude of placement options including: installed performance sound reinforcement, FOH, floor monitor, high SPL delay, and more. A blanking plate for optional VTH pole mounting is provided for placement atop a subwoofer in portable PA applications. Mounting options include horizontal and vertical mounting yokes (available separately), and 8 M10 Flying inserts. All hardware has been tested and certified for a greater than 5:1 safety ratio – giving installers complete peace of mind.
