user manual TA-500 INTRODUCTION Turbosound Aspect System Concepts The TA-500 system is a modular point source loudspeaker system designed to deliver extremely high fidelity audio. The system is easily scaleable medium scale ground-stacked and flown concert touring down 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.

user manual TA-500 The Aspect Polyhorn™ Concept The patented Polyhorn™ design effectively solves the problem of the tendency for exponential horns to beam with increasing frequency. Dividing the multi-cellular horn into multiple tapered waveguides guarantees that the path length of each micro-horn is equal from the surface of the driver diaphragm to the horn mouth, and ensures that all frequencies from all parts of the diaphragm arrive at the horn mouth together. This provides the wavefr

user manual TA-500 • The TA-500 features approximately twice the horizontal and vertical dispersion as the narrower TA-880 and TA-890 products, making it more suitable for medium- and near-field applications in smaller rooms. • The Polyhorn™ displays a similarly sharp cut-off at the dispersion edges to the narrower TA-880 and TA-890 products, as illustrated below, and this makes it practical to cover a lot of small to medium venues with only two cabinets per side, giving approximately

user manual TA-500 Neodymium magnets are used throughout all drive units. This results in higher efficiency, less power compression and reduced overall weight. Low-mid frequency drivers are designed to be rear-facing in the enclosure, enabling the heatsink / phase plug to be placed in the air flow to aid cooling. TA-500 user manual Page 12

user manual TA-500 When initially ratcheting a column of speakers it is good to bear in mind the expected angle of inclination so as to avoid ending up with too much of the strap left on the ratchet. This is important because the ratchet can only take three complete turns before it releases itself. WARNING: If a tilt strap is released suddenly, the column of enclosures may tend to swing violently forwards and care must be taken to avoid danger to persons in the vicinity. It is essential t
