Electro-Voice TL606DW ELECTRO-VOICE

MANUFACTURING PLANTS AT BUCHANAN, MI NEWPORT, TN SEVIERVILLE, TN OKLAHOMA CITY, OK GANANOQUE, ONT.

The TL606DW can also be successfully oper-

ated away from any nearby acoustic bound-

aries, particularly when multiple systems are

used for increased output ability (see Use in

Multiples section).

SUSPENDING TL606DW ENCLOSURES

The TL606DW is designed for typical cinema

stage (behind-the-screen) applications where

low-frequency systems are mounted on plat-

forms, behind the screen and some distance

above the stage floor. The TL606DW is not

designed to be self-suspended, and if sus-

pended, must be supported and hung in a

way which does not depand on the struc-

ture of the TL606DW itself for support.

The HS6 and HS7 kits allow the TL606DW to

be hung safely in a variety of orientations. The

combination of the correct HS kits and TL606DW

enclosure has been certified by an indepen-

dent structural engineer to be safe and secure.

Each HS kit consists of a steel tube, two

brackets, two eyebolts and the necessary fas-

teners. The installer must assemble the HS kit

by first drilling two holes into the TL606DW

enclosure, in predefined positions, and then

screwing the brackets onto the steel tube,

which passes through the enclosure. An eye-

bolt is inserted in the T-nut in the rear panel of

the enclosure to provide a pull up to aim the

enclosure. Full instructions and hole locations

are included with each cabinet and HS kit. A

TL606DW requires a single HS6 to suspend it

horizontally, or a single HS7 to suspend it

vertically. Electro-Voice recommends that only

one TL606DW be suspended at one time in this

manner. Vertical is defined as having the long

side vertical. Full attention must be given to

the instructions and limitations in the HS kit

instruction sheet.

ACCESSORIES FOR SPECIAL SYSTEMS

The TL606DW was designed to be used with

Electro-Voice TransPlanarTM horns, DH series

compression drivers and accessories to form

passive, 500 Hz crossover systems that may

be easily and quickly assembled and installed.

A 500-Hz passive crossover, the XEQ-504,

directly replaces the TL606DWs input panel.

Mounting kits, the HMK-1 and HMK-2, provide

the necessary hardware and accessories to

mount the HP940/DH1A and HP9040/DH1A

horn/driver combinations, respectively, to the

TL606DW box. Steel threaded inserts are pro-

vided on the top panel of the box to accommo-

date mounting kits for both horn combinations.

ARCHITECTS AND ENGINEERS

SPECIFICATIONS

The loudspeaker system shall consist of two

380-mm (15-in.) very-low-frequency reproduc-

ers installed in a vented enclosure. The frame

of the reproducer shall be manufactured of cast

aluminum, and its magnetic assembly shall

utilize a ferrite magnet. In addition, an alumi-

num ring encircling both the voice coil and pole

piece shall act to reduce flux modulation. A

second aluminum ring mounted to the top of the

pole piece shall act as a control on drive

inductance and provide a heat-transfer path

from the top of the voice coil. The inner surface

of the top plate shall be coated with PROTEFTM,

a Teflon®-based coating used for prevention of

damage to the voice coil.1

Performance specifications of a typical produc-

tion unit shall be as follows: measured sensitiv-

ity (SPL at 1 m on axis with 1 W input, swept

100-800 Hz) shall be at least 100 dB SPL;

usable frequency range shall extend from 30

Hz to 3,500 Hz; nominal impedance shall be 4

ohms; rated power handling capacity shall be

at least 800 watts, conforming to EIA standard

RS-426A.

The enclosure shall be solidly constructed of

19-mm (3/4-in.) stock with all joints tightly fitted

and glued. Overall dimensions shall be no

greater than 100.3 cm (39.5 in.) high by 57.2 cm

(22.5 in.) wide by 44.7 cm (17.6 in.) deep.

Finish shall be black vinyl with leatherette

pattern. An independently certified suspension

kit shall be available to suspend the TL606DW

horizontally (model HS6) or vertically (model

HS7). Internal 1/4-20 threaded fasteners pro-

vide a method of mounting high-frequency

devices to the system. The system shall be the

Electro-Voice TL606DW.
