Tannoy - A Short History
In the early days of broadcasting radio sets needed both low and high voltage DC power that had to be supplied by batteries. The lead
acid batteries used in the radio sets of the time needed regular recharging.
In London, in 1926, Guy R. Fountain perfected a new type of electrical rectifier with the aim of designing a charger more suitable for
use in the house. His rectifier consisted of two dissimilar metals held in a special electrolyte solution. One metal was Tantalum and
the other an alloy of Lead. So successful was this invention that Guy Fountain founded a British Company called Tannoy (a contraction
of the words 'Tantalum' and 'Alloy'). Tannoy soon became internationally known and highly regarded in all aspects of sound reproduction.
Moving coil loudspeakers with DC energised magnets began Tannoy's continued success in the field of loudspeaker technology.
A discrete two-way loudspeaker system followed in 1933 and shortly after a range of microphones and loudspeakers capable of high
power handling.
Tannoy has always been at the front of the communications revolution, developing its own equipment and production technology.
The company built a fund of knowledge and experience, that has proved invaluable in the development of loudspeakers for a truly wide
range of applications. The now famous Tannoy Dual Concentric™ principle was created and developed under Guy Fountain's direction
around 1950. It is highly regarded by music enthusiasts, and recording and broadcast studios because of its unique properties in faithfully
reproducing sound to an unusually high quality standard.
Guy Fountain retired from the company in 1974 but the Tannoy company continues his philosophy dedicated to the accurate and
realistic reproduction of music for both enthusiasts and professionals around the world.
The Tannoy Research and Development unit has further refined the innovative Dual Concentric™ principle. Using the latest design
and material technologies, with sophisticated circuit techniques in crossover design, Tannoy has produced a loudspeaker system with
superb reproductive capabilities and exceptionally wide dynamic range.
Tannoy is now part of the TG Group, whose goal is to design, produce and distribute the best engineered, most recognised and respected
brands of audio products in the world.

Initial Positioning
The Turnberry SE is a floor-standing speaker and therefore does not require a separate stand. To get a detailed sound with a 'fast' bass
and accurate stereo imaging it is necessary, however, to 'fix' the loudspeakers at a point in space.
Holes are provided in the base of the speakers for down-spikes that give maximum stability. Special floor-coupling spikes are provided
and these should be screwed into the base of the loudspeakers, taking care not to over-tighten them. When the loudspeaker is installed
in its upright position, the spikes should pass between the weave of your carpet to contact the floor beneath.
For polished wood floors, hard nylon self-levelling 'ball-and-cup' feet are provided.
Locate the loudspeakers so that the favourite listening position is approximately 15° from the axes of the cabinets. The axes of both
cabinets should intersect at a point slightly in front of the listening position. Remember that the proximity of the loudspeakers to walls
and corners will affect the sound. Some experimentation will probably be needed to fine tune the stereo image depth and low frequency
sound quality. Close-to-wall positions (and room corners more so) have the effect of increasing very low frequency sound energy.
Reflective adjacent walls may upset the stereo image by causing unwanted reflections.
The loudspeakers are designed to be used at least 1m from any side wall or reflective surface and at least 0.5m (20”) away from a rear
wall. Only in this position will their exceptional stereo image depth capabilities be realised.
Unpacking Instructions
Unfasten the bottom of the carton. Fold the end leaves out of the way and remove the packing tray to reveal the plinth and bottom
of the loudspeaker cabinet. Locate and remove from the carton the accessories pack. Turn the carton and loudspeaker over so that the
cabinet now stands on the floor inside the carton. Lift the carton upwards to reveal the loudspeaker.
Examine all pieces of packing material and inspect the carton for signs of external damage. If there is evidence of excessive damage to
the packaging and resulting damage to the loudspeaker inform the carrier and supplier immediately. Always keep the packing in such
circumstances for subsequent examination.
Tannoy strongly suggests that you store the complete packaging set for possible future use.
Amplifier Connections
Connect the loudspeakers to the amplifier using a high quality speaker cable. Your dealer will be able to make recommendations.
The terminals will accept either spade or banana plugs.
Arrange the connections so that the right hand amplifier channel terminals are connected to the right hand loudspeaker as viewed from
the listening position.
Correct polarity of the connections between the amplifier and speakers is essential.The positive terminal on the amplifier left channel,
marked + (plus) or coloured red, must be connected to the positive terminal on the left loudspeaker. The negative terminal on the
amplifier left channel, marked - (minus) or coloured black, must be connected to the negative terminal on the left loudspeaker.
Repeat this connection for the right speaker.
Good quality cables and tight, well-made connections are necessary to eliminate resistive losses and maintain the correct damping of
the loudspeaker by the amplifier.
If the cables and connections have been made correctly as described above the loudspeakers will be automatically in phase with each
other. However if phasing is felt to be incorrect (for example, diffuse stereo image, lack of bass) then apply the following test:
Place the loudspeakers side by side and play a monophonic signal from the amplifier, choosing the programme material with
a strong bass content. If phasing is correct bass will be full and rich. If incorrect there will be very little bass due to cancellation
effects. Incorrect phasing can be remedied by reversing the connecting leads to one loudspeaker (at either the amplifier or the
loudspeaker terminals but not both).
Note: Be certain to ensure that the amplifier is switched off when connecting or disconnecting loudspeaker leads. Accidentally shorting
the loudspeaker leads together can damage some amplifiers. Such damage is outside warranty provisions.
In combining the best of traditional crafts and the latest production and design skills Tannoy presents the Turnberry SE loudspeaker.
The Turnberry SE embodies the Tannoy philosophy. Cabinets in selected hardwoods are hand finished and polished to a standard that
is unsurpassed.
The Turnberry SE is a compact high performance loudspeaker based around
Tannoy's unique 10 inch ribbon wound Tulip Waveguide™ twin-magnet Dual
Concentric™. Signal handling is by gold-plated terminals with captive link
bi-wire/normal wiring and a hard wired time compensated crossover network.
The Turnberry SE offers high frequency energy tailoring through a high current
gold-plated switch block. Silver plated copper Van den Hul wiring is use
throughout, together with specially selected high quality crossover components.
The specially designed twin-roll impregnated fabric surround used on the drive
unit's cone, ensures midrange purity combined with tight, controlled bass.
