New technologies
CMS 3.0 Series
Omnimagnet™ technology
High frequency and low frequency drive
units utilise a single shared magnet,
offering improved time alignment
and coherence. A completely new
interpretation of Tannoy’s proprietary point
source drive unit design philosophy.
Ogive phase plug
Ogive refers to the mathematical
denition of the streamlined,‘rocket
cone’ shaped phase plug in the
waveguide eassembly. This
assists the critical shortening in
the propagation path of the
acoustic wavefront.
High frequency Torus dome
Torus refers to the donut shape
of the HF diaphragm. Within the
design, the HF ‘dome’ and the
precision engineered Torus Ogive
Waveguide™ are brought further
forward, providing wider high
frequency directivity.
Torus Ogive Waveguide™
Shallower waveguide with a
more aggressive are allows rapid
expansion of the acoustic
wavefront through the mouth
of the bass driver.
New Dual Concentric driver
The Dual Concentric™ driver exhibits better harmonic alignment, the effect of which is to deliver a more natural sound with
superb tonal balance and greater intelligibility. Propagating a spherical wave front aligned on all three axes, Tannoy’s point
source driver delivers even dispersion into a wide listening eld in both the horizontal and vertical planes. Optimal transient
performance and sound quality is achieved by the integrated design approach of the Dual. An even response throughout the
listening area and a constant time delay over the frequency spectrum provides exceptional off-axis performance.
