Gain Structure and Limiting
The VXP gain structure is designed to allow a low-level source device 
to drive the loudspeaker to full output. Maximum specified SPL will 
be achieved with a 4 dBu input signal. There is sufficient headroom 
in the signal path to accommodate input levels of 10 or even 20 dBu, 
with high quality compression engaged as needed to maintain sonic 
integrity without clipping.
Equalisation
The VXP loudspeaker requires no equalisation or correction to 
overcome system limitations; equalisation is necessary only to 
compensate for difficult acoustic environments. 
Rigging and Safety Procedures
The installation of Tannoy Professional loudspeakers using the 
dedicated hardware should carried out only by fully qualified 
installers, in accordance with all the required safety codes and 
standards that are applied at the place of installation. 
WARNING: As the legal requirements for flying change from country 
to country, please consult your local safety standards office before 
installing any product. We also recommend that you thoroughly 
check any laws and bylaws prior to installation. For more detailed 
information on rigging hardware and safety procedures, please 
consult the full VX Series and VXP Series Hardware Manual available 
at www.tannoy.com.
LED Functions
Limit LED - When illuminated this indicates that the system is 
approaching clipping. An occasional flicker of the red LED on the 
loudest peaks is acceptable. If this LED remains red for more than 
the duration of brief dynamic peaks, or lights continuously then the 
system is being overdriven. If the red LED illuminates excessively: 
• Reduce the input level (see interface panel) 
• Reduce the output level of the mixer, or other source to the 
speaker. 
Signal LED – The Green LED indicates that a useable signal is 
present at the input. 
Power LED – When AC mains is connected to the speaker and the 
power switch is turned on, the blue lower LED will illuminate. 
Audio Connections
The signal input & link connectors are fully balanced. When 
connecting a balanced signal be sure to wire to the following 
standard:
SIGNAL   
XLR CONNECTOR
Hot (+)   
Pin 2
Cold (-)   
Pin 3
Shield (GND) 
Pin 1
In a standard balanced interconnection there are two signal 
conductors and a shield. The shield is normally referenced to 
ground at one or both ends. Many times the shield is lifted at one 
end, usually at the input to eliminate “ground loops” or noise. This 
should be done only as a last resort; although it will reduce hum, 
the shields can act as radio antennas and pick up radio frequency 
interference from the environment. 
Multiple enclosures may be driven from a single audio source; simply 
plug the signal source output into the first XLR input socket, and 
patch that speaker’s XLR link to the next speaker’s XLR input socket.
