Utilising the the same design principles and proven acoustic benefits of a trapezoidal cabinet design of the Glenair, the Glenair 10 is a more compact speaker equipped with a 250mm (10.00") Dual concentric™ drive unit.
Plywood manufactured from birch grown in slow-growing cold regions of the world and selected for its denser quality is used for the main structure of the speaker cabinet. The combination of heavily damped material, comprehensive internal bracing and non-parallel side panels alleviate the problems associated with standing waves, ensuring that the loudspeaker is free from unwanted resonance.
Externally the cabinet is finely crafted with American Cherry veneer and solid wood mouldings hand finished and polished to an unsurpassed standard. No unsightly retaining lugs spoil the clean lines of the speaker’s front panel when the curved, acoustically transparent grille is removed; this thanks to the cleverly designed magnetised fixing method within the baffle structure.
The carefully engineered components of the 10.00” unit fitted to the Glenair 10 presents an astonishingly true to life performance with an open, coherent and utterly involving soundstage. Effortless bass dynamics, open midrange and meticulously detailed high frequency with a delicacy of treble nuances are assured.
Ensuring perfect integration of the driver elements, the carefully designed crossover network exhibits true audiophile qualities. All components are high precision, low-loss and thermally stable. For the high frequency feed a high quality vibration damped capacitor is used providing class-leading sonic consistency; exceptional dynamics, speed, focus, correct timbre and depth of field. Two large laminated iron core inductors are used to avoid saturation effects. Careful consideration has been given to the precise layout of the crossover in order to minimise inter component coupling and it is positioned well away from the driver to avoid any detrimental magnetic field effects. Silver plated Van den Hul wiring is used throughout to minimise losses and improve clarity.
The bi-wire terminal on the twin ported rear panel also features an ‘earth’ or grounding point. With the driver chassis grounded, this proven technology, developed on earlier Prestige models, minimises the effects of RF interference resulting in a more transparent midrange.
Each component part of the Glenair 10 model complements one another to deliver an audiophile loudspeaker that runs true to the highly respected pedigree of the Prestige range and as such maintains Tannoy’s leading position as an innovator of premium audio solutions.
