Tannoy CMS503 Overview

This pair of 5" Full-Range Ceiling Loudspeakers from Tannoy includes two full-bandwidth, high-power handling, and high-sensitivity loudspeakers built around Tannoy's CMS 3.0 Ceiling Monitor System technology. Based on a dual-concentric point-source driver, the speaker delivers wide and consistent broadband directivity, intelligibility, and an accurate and linear response and are designed for installation applications.

The dual-concentric driver design features Omnimagnet technology and the Torus Ogive Waveguide device, together providing consistent and controlled directivity along with improved high-frequency response. Time alignment and coherence between low and high frequencies enhances performance both on- and off-axis. The baffle provides a subtle extension to the wave-guide effect for additional sonic benefits.

The loudspeaker features extra clamp extension to accommodate thicker ceiling panels, and a locking design that prevents inadvertent over-screwing. The magnetic grille attachment enables easy removal and fitting for custom painting. It utilizes a 16-Ohm driver, making it ideal for use in high-performance, low-impedance systems. A low insertion-loss 30W transformer is included, with convenient front switching for taps at 30W, 15W, and 7.5W, with an additional 3.75W tap for traditional constant voltage systems.

Each speaker includes a grille, two tile support rails, and a C-ring. This pre-install model is supplied without a back can.
