Product Overview
The Tannoy AMS 6DC-WH is a full-bandwidth 6-inch Dual Concentric surface-mount loudspeaker in white, sold as a pair, built for background and foreground music plus speech in indoor and covered outdoor commercial spaces. Its Dual Concentric point-source driver with Omnimagnet technology and Torus Ogive waveguide delivers wide, consistent 90-degree directivity and enhanced intelligibility. With 70V/100V line operation, 16-ohm low-impedance bypass and IP65 weather resistance, it suits multi-zone distributed audio in corporate AV, hospitality, retail and worship environments.
Product Description
Supplied as a pair, the AMS 6DC-WH sits between the AMS 5DC and AMS 8DC in Tannoy's surface-mount installation range, pairing a 165 mm (6.5-inch) Dual Concentric point-source driver with a Torus Ogive waveguide. Placing the 25 mm PEI dome tweeter at the acoustic center of the low-frequency cone gives point-source phase coherence, so the whole 90-degree conical coverage pattern arrives on-axis and intelligibility holds up across the room rather than only directly beneath the box. Omnimagnet technology drives the 44 mm voice coil for 80 W continuous, 160 W programme and 320 W peak handling, reaching 108 dB average and 114 dB peak SPL — real headroom for busy bars, atriums, lobbies and covered terraces. A built-in low-insertion-loss 60 W line transformer with an externally accessible tapping switch supports 70V and 100V distributed systems, with a low-impedance position for direct 16-ohm drive from Lab Gruppen LUCIA and similar amplifiers. Every component is weather resistant to IP65: a high-temperature-resistant ABS enclosure in a semi-matt white finish, a weather-resistant zinc nickel-plated steel grille, and a weatherproof cable gland cover protecting the removable locking screw-terminal connectors. The white finish disappears against light ceilings and walls in retail and hospitality interiors. A colour-matched yoke bracket eases installation, with the optional VARIBALL multi-angle bracket available for precise audience aiming.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the AMS 6DC-WH sold individually or as a pair?
This listing is sold as a pair, supplying two surface-mount loudspeakers.
Can it be installed outdoors?
Yes. All components are weather resistant to IP65, supporting indoor and covered outdoor installation.
Does it work on 70V/100V distributed systems?
Yes. A 60 W line transformer with an externally accessible tapping switch supports 70V and 100V lines, and the unit can also be driven directly at 16 ohms.
How does it compare to the AMS 5DC and AMS 8DC?
The AMS 6DC sits between them, offering more output and low-frequency extension than the 5-inch model while remaining more compact than the 8-inch. All three share the same 90-degree pattern and voicing for consistent multi-zone systems.
What mounting options are available?
A colour-matched yoke bracket is included, and an optional VARIBALL multi-angle bracket allows precise audience aiming.
