Turbosound LMS series loudspeaker management systems

The Turbosound LMS-D24 and LMS-D26 series are powerful DSP-based audio processing units designed for use with Turbosound loudspeaker systems and associated bass enclosures. The functions of multiple conventional products are combined in a compact 1U high 19” rack unit. They offer EQ, both for the room and the drivers, delay to align the wave front, and limiters that can be set for each individual component to ensure against damage and to protect the long term reliability of your speakers.

The LMS-D26 has two inputs and six outputs and the LMS-D24 has four outputs. The units are configured to provide specific equalisation and crossover points aimed at optimizing the performance of these Turbosound loudspeaker systems. In addition, limiters, delays, eq, gain, polarity, and crossover filter controls are accessible to the user in order to match specific operation environments. The LMS series crossovers are designed for quick setup and adjustment via easy-to use front panel controls and, are ideally suited to both live sound and fixed installation.

Features

•Minimal signal path design, providing exceptional audio quality with carefully optimised processing and high performance converters for a >111dB dynamic range.

•Sonically superb ADC / DAC combination; a carefully matched pairing of the best devices from Burr Brown and Wolfson. Analogue Devices SHARC chip for DSP

•Extended bandwidth; 96 kHz sampling frequency provides for a nominally flat response to 40 kHz with minimal filtering.

•Audio-grade capacitors used in the analogue signal path for true audiophile performance and superior accuracy.

•Input delays of up to 400ms and output delays of up to 80ms can be set up on each output (mono) or pair of outputs (stereo) with fine resolution of 21µs steps to ensure perfect driver alignment.

•LF shelving filters to allow adjustment of the response in order to match variations of the acoustic conditions.

•Switching power supply that automatically adjusts to mains input voltages from 85 volts to 240 volts, allowing it be used anywhere in the world without inconvenient mains transformer adjustment.

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.
