50 YEARS ON - TANNOY INTRODUCE A SMALLER AUTOGRAPH
December 12th, 2005

Tannoy has introduced the Autograph Mini – a hugely scaled-down but authentic version of a loudspeaker that was famous throughout the audio world fifty years ago. Reduced to a fraction of the size of the immense and revered original Tannoy Autograph this exquisite replica is the ultimate modern retro audio product. Its diminutive size and accurately detailed finish produce a modern day classic that will embellish the most contemporary surroundings.

Remaining true to the cabinet build and finish quality of that yesteryear model, the Autograph Mini also incorporates a Dual Concentric™ driver – the unique engineering statement that makes this speaker a ‘real’
Tannoy. Incorporating wide bandwidth technology to ensure breathtaking performance from a unit that measures just 4” in diameter, this latest incarnation of the world renowned driver is the smallest ever manufactured. The drive unit follows in the footsteps of its proven heritage by retaining a heavy cast alloy frame and multi fibre paper pulp cone. Delivering natural midrange and well defined bass, the traditional but high tech cone material also ensures subtlety with stunning detail and expansive imaging.

A key component in the Autograph Mini and enhancing the loudspeaker’s strikingly true to life performance is a titanium domed high frequency unit; positioned on the same axis as the bass section and fitted with a neodymium magnet system, it delivers a smooth response up to an incredible 54kHz. Ensuring complete signal path integrity, 99.99% high purity silver cable is used to connect the tweeter to the system’s minimalist crossover network; a thoroughbred audiophile component in itself that includes low loss inductors and specially damped audio grade capacitors.

High density birch ply with hardwood veneers and solid hardwood mouldings are utilised in the unique and chic design of the hand finished cabinet. As with its erstwhile and larger predecessor, authentic oatmeal coloured grille
cloth is used to conceal the driver and is inlayed within the angled sides towards the front of the miniature exagonal cabinet. Timeless qualities of the original speaker linked to the very latest developments of the acoustic
arts give the Autograph Mini its status as a high performance loudspeaker designed for the discerning fashion conscious.
