Tannoy Di5/Di5t loudspeaker datasheet - Canford Audio

Di5 / Di5t 

Product Description 

Designed for a wide variety of sound reinforcement applications, the Tannoy Di5t is a high 

performance, ultra compact surface mount weather resistant loudspeaker. A full bandwidth 

loudspeaker designed for commercial, professional and residential applications where 

environment durability and high quality sonic performance are required. Indoor or outdoor, 

these speakers are ideally suited to stereo or monaural background or foreground music 

systems in such applications as diverse as theme parks, retail premises, restaurants and 

cafés, corporate audio visual, residential developments and houses of worship. 

Equipped with Tannoy’s unique and exclusive point source ICT 110mm (4.50") drive unit, 

the Di5t delivers an acoustic performance of outstanding clarity, definition and detail. This 

ICT (Inductive Coupling Technology) drive unit addresses the two most common 

component failures experienced in background music and sound reinforcement systems; 

the tweeter and the crossover reliability. The use of a wireless electromagnetic tweeter 

means that no crossover is required in the design; this therefore ensures that an ICT unit 

cannot be burned out through system misuse or by constant heavy usage. The mineral 

loaded polypropylene cone material and nitrile rubber surround further enhance durability 

and long-term reliability. The 90 degree conical dispersion characteristic of the speaker 

ensures it can be mounted in either vertical or horizontal orientations on the wall or ceiling 

with no compromise to performance and vocal intelligibility. 

Available in textured black or white painted finish with matching rubber trims, the 

outstandingly durable and scuff resistant, high impact polystyrene (HIPS) Di enclosure is 

weather resistant,rated IP64 to EN60529 (IEC529); a construction fully optimised for 

consistent performance in adverse conditions indoors or out. 

The Di speaker cabinet may be painted to suit the décor of the installation. Further 

architectural modification is possible by application of alternative colour trims. Two standard 

colour trim options are available from stock; enabling black or white product to be supplied 

factory pre-fitted with either red or blue trims. 

Other trim colours can also be created to suit specific requirements, but only as a special 

order customisation subject to minimum order quantities. Primarily aimed at corporate 

branding applications, this aesthetic flexibility will also enable colour coordination for 

larger installs. 

Transformer version - the Di5t 

The Di5t model option is equipped with an internally mounted low insertion loss line 

transformer for 70V or 100V distributed sound applications. Wattage taps are easily 

configurable to the following settings via an easily accessible rotary tapping switch, which is 

top panel mounted under the rubber trim. 

70V: 30W / 15W / 7.5W / 3.75W / OFF & Low Impedance operation 

100V: 30W / 15W / 7.5W / OFF & Low Impedance operation 

Features
