Unpacking the loudspeaker
After unpacking the unit please check carefully for damage. If damage is found, please notify your supplier at once. You, the
consignee, must instigate any claim. Please retain all packaging in case of future re-shipment.
System requirements
TCX series two-way loudspeakers operate as passive systems and require only
one amplifier channel for correct operation; the internal passive crossover
network built into each enclosure splits the frequency range appropriately
between the LF driver and the HF driver. TCX loudspeakers are equipped with
two Speakon NL4 connectors wired in parallel with a 4-way barrier strip
connector, providing input and loop-through connections to additional TCX
series loudspeakers.
To avoid wasting amplifier power you should use heavy-duty speaker cable with
a minimum wire size of 12 gauge (1.5mm²), and preferably 10 gauge (2.5mm²) for
longer runs. For extreme cable lengths be aware of cable impedance and
resistive losses. Always observe the correct polarity as shown.
Amplifier considerations
TCX series loudspeaker enclosures should be driven by high quality power amplifiers designed for true
professional use. Power amplifiers should be capable of delivering long term broadband power equal to the
loudspeaker’s program power rating at its stated nominal impedance. The use of under-powered amplifiers must
be avoided as heavily clipped signals can cause permanent loudspeaker damage.

System Controllers
TCX systems can be used with Turbosound LMS-D24 or LMS-D26 controllers to provide improved performance as well as vital
operating and system security features. If you do not have a controller, please contact your Turbosound dealer for further details.
Turbosound LMS-D2X controllers provide preset slots into which you can load TCX loudspeaker model parameters, available as a
free download. To use your TCX loudspeaker with a Turbosound controller:
1. Download and install the presets for TCX loudspeakers from ftp://ftp.turbosound.com/tech_data
2. Power up the controller(s) and associated power amplifiers.
3. Press
RECALL
to select the appropriate program from the preset menu using the ‘
A’ ROTARY ENCODER
.
4. Press
RECALL
again to accept the preset. The controller will un-mute and is then ready for use.
"Loading the manual" means you need to wait until the file loads and becomes available for online reading. Some manuals are very large, and the time they take to appear depends on your internet speed.
