System 2 – Stereo with bass units and Active Crossover
In this case a crossover is needed to separate the bass and mid / high frequencies. The
Turbosound LMS series is recommended as the units are preconfigured with presets to
match the TCS Compact series requirements.
This system can be scaled up with the addition of further amplifiers and processors. If
using the LMS-D26 processor there will be two extra channels available for adding say
another pair of mid/top cabinets through an extra stereo power amplifier.
If using TCS-218C or TCS-215C dual-driver bass bins then note that the impedance for
each of these is already 4 ohms and only some very powerful amplifiers are capable of
driving loads at 2 ohms or below. Consider using extra amplifiers for this purpose rather
than the loop through connections. The TCS-115C or TCS-118C bass speakers are 8 ohms
so it is possible to run two cabinets from one amplifier, providing the amplifier is
powerful enough, although extra amplifiers will still provide the best performance.
It is recommended to use a bass cabinet and a mid/top with each stereo amplifier as this
helps distribute the load across the power supplies better.
NB: The EQ shown is for tuning the system to the room / venue.
