System Configurations
TCS Compact Series 2-way enclosures are passive loudspeaker systems. This means that
they require 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 in each enclosure. If subwoofers are used in a bi-
amplified system in conjunction with TCS Compact Series 2-way enclosures, additional
amplifier channels and external electronic crossovers will be required. The Turbosound
LMS-D24/26 digital management systems are recommended for this purpose.
Many different system configurations of TCS Compact Series loudspeaker enclosures are
possible to suit various installation requirements, ranging from cafes, bars and
restaurants to theme parks, theatres and houses of worship. Listed below are a few
common examples.
System1 – Basic stereo set up
A single amplifier supporting two TCS Compact series 2-way speakers creates a standard
stereo system. A further pair of TCS mid/tops could be connected using the loop-through
connections, although this will result in a corresponding drop in impedance. With TCS
Compact 2-way speakers with a nominal impedance of 8 ohms this would make a
combined 4 ohm load that should be suitable for any good quality power amplifier (see
amplifier considerations for more information).
NB: A stereo configuration is shown but this system could be run in mono.
NB: The EQ block is shown for tuning the room.
