Tannoy Dual Concentric
Designed and engineered it the UK, the full-range QCI 8DC comprises a single 200mm (8.00”) driver with a glass fibre cone and high-excursion rubber surround. Capable of handling up to an impressive 320 Watts the QCI 8DC is capable of higher SPL and greater bass authority than its smaller variants whilst remaining extremely easy to drive and suitable for a wide variety of amplifiers and applications.

Torus Ogive Waveguide
Performance is further enhanced by the implementation Tannoy’s highly innovative Torus Ogive Waveguide which allows rapid wavefront expansion further improving high-frequency directivity for a remarkably focused image placement.
Beautifully Elegant
A powder-coated perforated UV-resistant steel mesh grill protects from dust and can be removed and painted to match any décor. Unlike many in-ceiling loudspeakers, the QCI range has an extremely thin bezel for unobtrusive installation. Round and square baffles are included, and an innovative self-aligning clamping system makes the single integrated unit easy to install.
