Tannoy SFX 5.1 Home Theater Speakers

Tannoy SFX 5.1 Home Theater Speakers

The Tannoy SFX 5.1 released a few days ago is a sleek and stylish 5.1-ch. home theater speaker package available in black or silver high gloss finish for £279.90. The system comes with four single driver satellites and one twin driver center channel supplied with wall brackets and speaker cable.

According to Tannoy the "WideBand" technology has been incorporated into the satellites and center channel speakers to extend high frequency response up to 78KHz (I highly doubt this as we aren't supposed to hear anything above 20KHz), however this technology has been incorporated to improve sonic detail, imaging precision and overall system integration. The powered subwoofer delivers 100W and features a long throw 200mm driver to deliver punchy bass. Also it offers line and speaker level input and an automatic power on/off function.

All speakers have a nominal impedance of 6 ohms, a maximum sensitivity of 85dB, a frequency response of 140Hz - 78kHz (-6dB) and are magnetically shielded.
