At Tannoy, we’ve understood the intricacies of sound reproduction for almost 100 years. Our Supertweeter GO, while visually discreet, is a testament to this understanding. It isn't merely an accessory; it's a finely tuned instrument designed to extend the upper reaches of your hi-fi system's frequency response, revealing nuances that might otherwise remain unheard.

We’re often asked about the advantages of adding a supertweeter to an already well-appointed system? Although the human ear has a typical upper frequency limit, often cited around 20 kHz, the world of sound extends far beyond this. While we may not consciously 'hear' these ultra-high frequencies, their presence or absence impacts our perception of sound.  

Harmonics, overtones, and the leading edge of transients in instruments like cymbals, violins, and even human voices, contain vital information well above 20 kHz. A frequency extender, like the Supertweeter GO is designed to reproduce these subtle yet crucial elements, adding air, space, and a greater sense of realism to your music.

The result is a more complete and coherent sound. A supertweeter provides an additional dimension, enriching the harmonic structure and improving the transient response. You'll notice improved detail in instruments, a more defined soundstage, and an overall sense of ease in the presentation of complex musical passages. The music simply breathes more freely. 

The Supertweeter GO aims to bring studio-quality sound with exceptional detail and nuance. Housed in an oiled American walnut plinth with gold anodized accents, is designed to enhance wide-band digital audio formats and is built to complement our PRESTIGE and other legacy speaker models. 

At its core, the Supertweeter GO features a 25 mm magnesium alloy dome and a neodymium magnet system, ensuring class-leading coherence and precise point-source imaging. To fine-tune your listening experience, it offers custom-tailoring options including three adjustable crossover points (14 - 18 kHz) and five level selections (89 - 95 dB) via gold-plated brass setting screws. Additionally, the tweeter pod angle can be adjusted, allowing for optimal sound projection regardless of cabinet height, ultimately reflecting the sound engineer's original artistic vision in your home. 

In essence, the Tannoy Supertweeter GO is an investment in the finer details of sound. It's a discreet enhancement that speaks volumes, revealing more within your favourite recordings and reminding us that in the pursuit of high fidelity, sometimes the most significant improvements come from acknowledging what we haven't yet fully experienced.
