user manual TA-890 INTRODUCTION Turbosound Aspect System Concepts The TA-890 system is a modular point source loudspeaker system designed to deliver extremely high fidelity audio. The system is easily scaleable from large and medium scale concert touring applications to small clubs and events. The Aspect system concept centres around the exceptional directivity of the patented Polyhorn™ devices employed in the high frequency and high-mid frequency sections of the mid/high enclosure.

It can also be usefully employed as a front or side fill cabinet. The TA-890L

user manual TA-890 The Loudspeaker Management System (LMS) Concept Turbosound Loudspeaker Management Systems are more than just electronic crossovers. They provide full digital alignment of all components in the Aspect enclosures, to ensure coherent acoustic output. They also incorporates a number of features which contribute to overall system reliability and ease of setting-up. All system parameters such as crossover frequencies, limiter settings and equalisation can be simply called u

user manual TA-890 TSW-218 Subwoofer The TSW-218 is designed to cover the sub and low frequency ranges from 25Hz to 100Hz, and can be used as part of a 5-way Aspect system in order to reinforce sub-bass frequencies. It utilises two custom designed neodymium 18” drivers loaded with TurboBass™ devices. The proprietary loading technique and horn flare design produces significant mutual coupling between adjacent enclosures, resulting in sensitivity gains of up to 110dB with eight units c

user manual TA-890 Transportation TA-890 cabinets include a removable wheelboard which clips to the front of the cabinet, allowing single units to be conveniently transported. These are designed to be stackable, so that when not in use they can be neatly stored without taking up floor space. The wheelboards will fit both mid-high and low frequency cabinets. Up to three TA-890 cabinets can be stacked on a WB- 890 wheel dolly, and this allows the cabinets to be pre-configured a

user manual TA-890 Aspect Flying Systems To take full advantage of the very precise dispersion properties of the Aspect system, an integral rigging system has been developed. The flying system is inherently safe, flexible and simple to use, and even though it is integral to the box, it may be quickly and easily removed for safety testing. The rigging design allows the creation of clusters and arrays that can be assembled quickly and with a minimum number of crew, and with full control o

user manual TA-890 FLYING AND STACKING Overview The Aspect system flying hardware is specifically designed to take advantage of the precise horizontal directivity characteristics, as well as allow a wide range of adjustment of the vertical angles between adjacent enclosures, and the overall vertical inclination of each column of enclosures. This means that arrays can easily be optimised to suit the coverage requirements of any situation. Sound radiating from adjacent cabinets will suc

user manual TA-890 GIGMATE™ ACOUSTIC SIMULATION While the Aspect System is remarkably intuitive in terms of building arrays and aiming them, and requires no theoretical calculations in order to achieve optimum coverage of a room or audience space due to its inherent ‘point-and-shoot’ nature, there may well be situations where some prior knowledge of a venue can save time in setting up and configuring the PA. In order to aid in this process, Turbosound offers the GigMate™ software acou

user manual TA-890 Designing a system To design a system begin by defining the venue/audience areas by clicking on the “Audience Area” tab in the bottom left of the screen. Within this window you can edit or remove existing audience areas, and create new ones. There are two methods of defining an audience area. In either case you must define the X1/Y1 coordinate of the start of the area, you can then either enter the X2/Y2 points or its length and angle. As you create audience area
