Page 12: System Requirements
TXD series SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS TXD series enclosures (with the exception of the TXD-252 and TXD-15M) are passive loudspeaker systems. This means that they require only one amplifier channel for correct operation, the frequency splitting between the low frequency driver and the high frequency driver or mid and high frequency driver being accomplished by the internal passive crossover network built into each enclosure. -
Page 13: Bi-Amplified Operation
Bi-amplified operation TXD series two-way loudspeakers can also be operated in bi-amplified mode together with any of the available bass enclosures, in order to give enhanced audio performance and greater overall sound pressure level. In this case one amplifier will power the full range loudspeakers, while another is required to power the bass cabinets. -

– than operating a more powerful one within its ratings. Equalisation TXD series enclosures are designed to provide smooth and even frequency response. They do not need excessive amounts of external equalisation to overcome the sonic deficiencies often found in many lesser designs. -
Page 15: Dispersion
For best results the loudspeakers should be either mounted on tripod stands or supported on straight poles on top of TXD series bass enclosures. In order to optimise the sound coverage, point the loudspeakers inwards slightly, such that the centre lines intersect at a distance approximately equal to twice the width of the stage. -

The recommended thread-locking compound is Loctite 222. The threaded rigging points used in TXD series enclosures are manufactured from zinc-plated mild steel. Therefore, and additionally if the external bolts used are zinc-plated, zinc-passivated, stainless steel or anodised (as the majority are), then the corresponding activator, Loctite 7471, should be used to achieve 100% performance. -
