SRM 10A/12A/15A
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing Tannoy SRM-series monitors. These are
professional mid-field reference monitors which provide unrivaled
musical articulation and outstanding dynamics and accuracy. Using
advanced dual concentric drivers, they offer the advantages of point
source operation in a very cost-effective design. The attractive wood
panel cabinet and front panel contribute to their excellent acoustic
performance. Due to the point source operation, they will perform
equally well in both landscape and portrait orientation.
This quick start guide is intended to provide the user with some
useful advice on how to install and use the loudspeakers, as well
as technical information about how the system is designed and its
detailed specifications. We hope you get the best results from your
monitoring system.
Once you have set up your new monitors as described in this
document, please register your product online at www.tannoy.com –

Unpacking
To get the speaker out of the carton without damage, open the flaps
fully and bend them right back. Turn the package upside-down on the
floor and lift the carton vertically up to leave the speaker resting on its
packing tray.
Inspect each speaker for signs of transit damage. In the unlikely event
of this having occurred, inform the carrier and the supplier. Keep all
the packaging if damage has occurred as this will show evidence of
excessive handling force. It is also a good idea to keep the carton for
future transportation.
Caution
These monitors are capable of generating high sound levels over a
sustained period of time. Because of their low levels of distortion, it
is not always obvious that the sound level is high when working with
these monitors. Please be aware that exposure to excessive levels over
a sustained period of time can lead to permanent hearing damage.
