5.2 Dual Concentric Driver Technology
The Gold 7 incorporates Tannoy's legendary Dual Concentric driver technology. This design places the high-frequency driver precisely at the acoustic center of the low-frequency driver. This coaxial arrangement provides class-leading phase coherence and point-source imaging, resulting in a highly accurate and detailed soundstage where all frequencies originate from a single point.
