Looking for a powerful full-range PA speaker for portable and installation applications? Check out the black Tannoy VX 5.2, a dual-concentric passive 5" loudspeaker offering high output and optimal phase coherence for multipurpose use as an FOH speaker, a floor monitor, or a side fill. The VX 5.2 provides a compact yet punchy and sonically articulate solution for small-scale performance sound reinforcement, as well as demanding background music and high-intelligibility speech applications where clarity and natural vocal reproduction are paramount.

The speaker utilizes 520W (peak) to drive the 5" full-range driver and the 5" low-frequency driver, which combine for a frequency response of 87 Hz to 35 kHz with a maximum SPL of 117. The VX 5.2 utilizes a Q-Centric waveguide for tight horizontal and vertical pattern control (120° H x 90° V). The vented and internally braced trapezoidal plywood enclosure features an array of mounting points including four M6 flying inserts and a pair of M6 yoke bracket inserts, allowing for versatile installation with separately available hardware.

Q: 3. When adjusting the focus distance, does this change the angle of the lens's so that the convergence is correct? i.e., when looking at objects that are closer, your eyes will be more crossed then when you are looking at images that are much more distant. The alternative is to have lens angles fixed so that there is an optimal distance to subject. If the latter is the case, they should publish that distance.

A: The focusing elements in the Canon RF 5.2mm f/2.8L Dual Fisheye 3D VR Lens (B&H# CA5228L) do not change the angle of each element's view to adjust for convergence. They simply allow for the sensor to attain critical focus on the focal plane of the subject.

Q: 4. I'm thinking of buying the lens, but renting the R5. Will I be able to use the lens if the R5 doesn't have the updated firmware?
