Three-way loudspeaker TA-500tDP

The TA-500tDP is a networkable, digitally self-powered three-way enclosure with integral flyware comprising a custom HF driver loaded by a high frequency Polyhorn™ device, a custom 10" drive unit on a further Polyhorn™ device optimised for mid frequencies, and a 15" low-mid frequency driver loaded with a TurboBass™ device.

It features a new generation of innovative lightweight Class D amplifiers, utilising revolutionary 96kHz DSP technology to give operating efficiency in excess of 90%. A Powercon connector provides mains input to the auto-sensing switch mode power supply, and 3-pin XLRs are used for input and parallel link signal connections. RJ45 network connectors enable multiple loudspeakers to be controlled and monitored over a BVNet network using TurboDrive™ software.

The TA-500tDP cabinet is trapezoidally shaped with side angles optimised for arraying and close packing and includes an integral rigging system allowing the assembly of simple two-wide and three-wide arrays of cabinets. An optional removable, stackable wheelboard clips on to the front of the cabinet for transportation
