Ampli er Considerations
The TPX series loudspeakers are optimized for use with the TURBOSOUND T series ampli ers with the LMS series controllers. A full range of DSP settings to suit
any con guration are provided for download on the TURBOSOUND website. The use of third party ampli cation and processing is only advised using the matrix of
manual settings as well as the limiter calculator provided on the TURBOSOUND website. The TPX series loudspeaker enclosures should be driven by high quality power
ampli ers designed for true professional use. Power ampli ers should be capable of delivering long term broadband power equal to half the loudspeaker’s peak power
rating at its stated nominal impedance. The use of underpowered ampli ers must be avoided as heavily clipped signals can cause permanent loudspeaker damage.
Limiters, crossovers and equalisation points must be set in accordance with the settings provided on the TURBOSOUND website. This will ensure the optimum sound
quality and long-term reliability as well as protection from damage.
Neutrik speakON* NL4 locking input connector(s) are provided, allowing options for input and link through.
