Product Overview

The Tannoy AMS 5DC-WH is a white 5-inch dual concentric surface-mount loudspeaker for background and foreground music in commercial and architectural spaces. Sold as a pair, it pairs a point-source dual concentric driver with an IP65-rated enclosure, making this surface-mount loudspeaker equally at home in dry interiors and wet or dusty environments. Built-in 70V/100V transformer taps and Lab Gruppen LUCIA optimisation let integrators deploy it efficiently across multi-zone distributed audio systems.

Product Description

The AMS 5DC-WH is a full-bandwidth, high-sensitivity loudspeaker built around a proprietary 5-inch Dual Concentric point-source driver with Omnimagnet technology on a Torus Ogive waveguide, delivering wide, consistent broadband directivity with the linear response of Tannoy’s studio monitors. It handles 60 watts continuous and 240 watts peak, suiting stereo or mono music and paging in theme parks, hotels, restaurants and bars, retail stores, corporate AV rooms, residential developments, and houses of worship. Because the AMS 5DC-WH shares a sonic signature with Tannoy ceiling loudspeakers, it integrates cleanly into multi-zone designs that mix wall- and ceiling-mounted units. The semi matt white moulded enclosure achieves an IP65 rating, making it suitable for indoor swimming pools, saunas, high-dust work areas, and covered outdoor applications in moderate weather. An integral low-insertion-loss 30 W transformer provides 70V and 100V taps via a front rotary switch, with low-impedance 16-ohm operation also available. Installation is quick using the included colour-matched yoke bracket, and an optional VARIBALL multi-angle bracket is available separately. This surface-mount loudspeaker is part of the wider Tannoy commercial loudspeaker collection; for the same model in a darker finish, compare the Tannoy AMS 5DC in black.
