user manual TCS Compact series System Considerations Amplifier Requirements Turbosound loudspeaker enclosures should be driven by high quality power amplifiers designed for true professional use. Such amplifiers will have balanced inputs, DC and RF fault protection, and well designed cooling systems for reliability. For low impedance systems the ‘program’ power, listed in the loudspeaker’s technical specification, is the best guide to the size of amplifier required for general purpos

user manual TCS Compact series Crossovers and Processors The TCS-C50T is a passive loudspeaker system. This means that it requires only one amplifier channel for correct operation, the frequency splitting between the low frequency driver and the high frequency driver being accomplished by the internal passive crossover network. If subwoofers are used, additional amplifier channels and external electronic crossovers may be required. The Turbosound LMS-D24/26 digital management systems

user manual TCS Compact series Installation Procedure 1. Select the ceiling tile(s) to be used for mounting the loudspeaker(s) and remove it from the ceiling. Mark the cutout either by tracing from the cardboard template supplied with the loudspeaker, or by placing the tile bridge on the rear side of the tile, making sure that it is centred in both directions. Cut the hole with a knife or with a circular cutter set to 240mm (9 7/16”). Ø240 2. Remove the loudspeaker grille b

user manual TCS Compact series 4. Connect the wiring to the removable connector. A 4-way connector is supplied with the loudspeaker. Strip the insulation back by 5mm (3/16”), insert the bare ends of the wire into the connector (do not tin the wire) and screw down the hold-down screw with a small flat blade screwdriver. There are two possible connection strategies, depending on the desired circuit result when a single unit is disconnected for trouble shooting or servicing: Par

user manual TCS Compact series Painting the Loudspeaker Painting before Installation The speaker’s white finish matches most décor schemes and does not need further finishing. However where interior design requires an alternative colour this can be easily accomplished. The speaker can either be painted before installation, or where the rim needs to be finished at the same time as the ceiling, the rim can be painted after locating in the ceiling. The speaker will accept almost any

user manual TCS Compact series Cable Recommendations Heavy duty loudspeaker cable should always be used, with a minimum wire size of 12 gauge (1.5mm²), and preferably 10 gauge (2.5mm²) for longer runs, keeping the run as short as possible. This helps to avoid wasting amplifier power in the resistance of the cable. High cable resistance also lowers the damping factor of the amplifier which affects its ability to control loudspeaker cone movement. Losses due to undersized cable and long

user manual TCS Compact series Use of Turbosound EASE data Turbosound provides pre-measured EASE data to aid sound system designers in making appropriate choices with the type and positioning of speakers in the required venue. The suitability of certain models can be assessed and the installation can be improved by adapting the frequency response consequently. The speakers are measured from the centre of an entire globe with 5 degree resolution and third octave frequency resolution.
