The TA-500HM includes a passive crossover network between the MF and HF drive units for bi-amped operation which can be bypassed for full tri-amped operation by moving an internal jumper.
The TA-500HM cabinet is trapezoidally shaped with side angles optimised for arraying or close packing. An optional removable, stackable wheelboard clips on to the front of the cabinet for transportation. M10 rigging points are provided on the top, bottom and sides of the cabinet, as well as two further points on the rear. A cost-effective external flying system consists of internal steel struts which are used in conjunction with lifting bars, hinge kits and rear straps to assemble simple two-wide and three-wide arrays of cabinets.
A recessed panel at the rear of the cabinet carries two parallel-linked Speakon NL8s for input and loop-through connections, with a further Speakon NL4 which is used for the sub link-out connection.
