Tannoy VMS 1 Compact Passive 5″ 2-Way Monitor Speakers – Black, Pair

VMS 1

Sold by pairs and designed for both speech and music nearfield applications, the 100-Watt VMS 1 utilizes monitor-grade 5″ low frequency and 1″ high frequency driver for extended frequency range, low distortion, and exceptional long-term reliability.

Thanks to the speakers versatile and compact design, the VMS 1 is ideally suited for a wide range of applications, including stereo and surround setups, home recording studios, audio and video production, as well as fixed-installation sound systems for restaurants and bars, theme parks, hotels, retail stores and houses of worship.

Superb Performance

TheVMS 1designincludescustom,monitor-grade 5″ low-frequency and 1″ high-frequency drivers, in an enclosure robust enough for commercial applications.Thephase-optimized and high-precision crossoverdelivershighly accurate and linear response, along withbuilt-inauto-overload protectionthatprevents tweeter damagefromexcessivepower surges.This configuration handles up to100Watts to deliver exceptional dynamics, realism, and enhanced intelligibility, all in a compact and highly-efficient system that is well-suited to a wide range of amplifier options including entry-level amplifiers.

Attractive and Easy to Install

The highly-durable and scuff-resistant ABS enclosure features a matte-black painted finish,alongwith an aesthetically-pleasing,powder-coated perforated steel grille and seamless rubberaccents, all of which helpsVMS 1blend beautifully into any dcor.Setting upis quick and easy thanks to the includedcolour-matched mounting bracket and spring terminals,orVMS 1 cansimplybeused as bookshelfspeakers.For more complex installed-sound applications, the VMS 1 is designed with multiple internal rigging points and universal mounting points for optional industry-standard brackets.
