The Tannoy CVS 8 is a compact 240-Watt ceiling loudspeaker engineered to provide superb audio performance in both background and foreground music sound systems. Ideally suited for a wide variety of applications, from restaurants and hotels to houses of worship and businesses of all types.

Description

The Tannoy CVS 8 is a full bandwidth large-format in-ceiling speaker system of class-leading performance and exceptional value. The design comprises of 200 mm (8.00”) mid bass driver with a coaxially mounted 19 mm (0.75") high frequency section mounted in a vented, injection moulded, paintable front baffle manufactured from UV/weather resistant UL94V-0 ABS material. The new device is currently pending UL Listed status (UL-1480 and UL-2043).

The mineral loaded polypropylene cone material and nitrile rubber surround provide durability and long-term reliability, minimising system maintenance costs and future disruption to any facility. This compact unit is specifically designed for applications requiring the combination of music and speech reinforcement at higher SPLs with consistent functionality and full bandwidth sound quality. Typical applications include shopping malls, large conference facilities, hotel lobbies and ballrooms, and larger bars and high-end restaurants where higher BGM specifications are often specified and demanded.

The CVS 8 is equipped with a low insertion loss 60W line transformer easily configurable to the following settings via front baffle mounted rotary tapping switch:

70 V systems: 60W / 30W / 15W / 7.5W / OFF & low Impedance operation
100 V systems: 60W / 30W / 15W / OFF & low Impedance operation

The CVS 8 is supplied with an integral painted steel back can, with recessed termination box, to satisfy the vast majority of installation application requirements. The removable locking connector has screw terminals for secure wire termination and “loop through” facility. Strain relief is provided by a clamping mechanism for use with plenum rated cable or conduit. Security toggle clamps make for quick and easy installation, while two tile support rails and one C-ring are also included in the package. A plaster (mud) ring is available as an optional accessory.
