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.

TCS COMPACT SERIES specifications

The Turbosound TCS Compact Series represents a significant evolution in compact sound reinforcement solutions, offering exceptional audio quality and versatile applications for both live sound and permanent installations. With a focus on performance and portability, the TCS series is designed to meet the demands of various environments, from concert halls to corporate events.

One of the standout features of the TCS Compact Series is its innovative design, which combines advanced acoustical engineering with cutting-edge materials. The cabinets are constructed from high-grade plywood, providing robustness while still being lightweight, making transport and setup effortless. The series includes both full-range models and dedicated subwoofers, allowing users to create customized sound systems tailored to their specific needs.

The TCS Series employs a proprietary waveguide technology that ensures a wide and even dispersion of sound, resulting in a consistent audio experience across a wide listening area. This feature is particularly beneficial in large venues where audience members may be located at varying distances from the stage.

Another notable technology integrated into the TCS Compact Series is the use of high-performance transducers. These drivers are engineered for optimum efficiency and clarity, delivering powerful low frequencies and crisp highs. The subwoofers are specifically designed to complement the full-range units, providing a deep bass response that enhances the overall sound quality of any performance.

The TCS series also features advanced rigging options, allowing for flexible deployment configurations. Whether flown in an array or positioned on the ground, the cabinets can be easily adapted to suit the venue's acoustics. This versatility makes them an ideal choice for both temporary setups and permanent installations.

Connectivity is another area where the TCS Compact Series excels. With a range of input and output options, including high-quality connectors, users can seamlessly integrate the systems with various mixing consoles and audio sources.

In summary, the Turbosound TCS Compact Series is a powerful, versatile, and durable solution for audio professionals seeking high-quality sound reinforcement. Its combination of innovative design, advanced technologies, and user-friendly features positions it as a go-to choice for live sound engineers and installation specialists alike. Whether for touring acts, corporate events, or fixed installations, the TCS series delivers exceptional performance you can rely on.
