Tannoy Gold 8

Professional nearfield monitor at a glance

With its Gold Series, the long-established British company Tannoy introduces professional nearfield monitors in three different sizes and for the application areas of recording, editing, mixing and mastering. As the largest member of the series, the Tannoy Gold 8 is equipped with an 8" coaxial driver specially designed and manufactured by the manufacturer with a 1" tweeter and optimized for the most accurate and linear frequency response possible. The driver horn is designed to allow the widest possible listening angle.

For the adjustment to the room conditions, there is a front control for volume and treble and on the back a three-step switch with -4, -2, 0dB for bass response. Thanks to its front bass reflex port, the Tannoy Gold 8 can be placed close to a wall.

The separate amplifiers for the woofer and tweeter provide a total of 300W in a powerful, low-distortion Class AB circuit. An automatic shutdown can also be switched on.

The connection to the audio interface or mixing console is either via the XLR or balanced jack input, via an additional stereo mini-jack input that can be simultaneously fed another audio signal and tapped again via Monitor Link and passed on to the next monitor. The Tannoy Gold 8 can play back either the left or the right channel of this signal.
