1. Introduction
The Tannoy B950  is a dedicated subwoofer designed for high definition sound
reinforcement at low and ultra-low frequencies. It will extend the power bandwidth of
SuperDual sound reinforcement systems to below 30 Hz, making it ideal for effects
in club, theatre and concert sound reinforcement. Where ultra-low frequency
enhancement is required with increased system headroom and maximum impact,
combined frequency overlap is possible with cabinets like the B400.
The B950 is intended for use on the ground and can be close stacked, while the main
system is flown. This powerful loudspeaker is capable of delivering high sound
pressure levels with extremely low distortion while maintaining a uniform frequency
response throughout its dynamic range. This makes the speakers capable of
consistent intelligibility and tonal quality at any listening level.
The B950 comprises two 18-inch high efficiency bass units housed in a heavily
braced optimally vented enclosure. Ruggedly constructed from multiple-ply
hardwood the B950 features carrying handles and inserts for castors.
2. Unpacking
Every Tannoy product is carefully inspected before packing. After unpacking your
B950 please inspect for any exterior physical damage, and save the carton and any
relevant packaging materials in case the loudspeaker again requires packing and
shipping. In the event that damage has been sustained in transit notify your dealer
immediately.
3. Connectors/Cabling
The B950 is fitted with 4-pole Speakon
 connectors. Speakon has the following
advantages over EP and XLR type connectors: All termination’s are solderless, this
makes life easier at the time of installation or when field servicing is required.
Contacts will accept 6 sq. mm wire with an outside diameter of up to 15mm and a
current rating of 30 Amps. The pins of the 2 Speakon sockets identified input/output
on the rear of the input panel are paralleled within the enclosure. Tannoy have
adopted the following wiring standard for all Superdual products :-
