TMS-Low Subwoofer
The TMS-Low is a compact horn-loaded subwoofer enclosure consisting of an 18” low frequency driver.
It is designed for use with the matching TMS-High mid/high enclosure. The TMS-Low is supplied with
heavy duty wheels and the plywood cabinet is shaped to allow the TMS-High enclosure to be stowed
inside the horn flare when transporting the system in and out of a venue. It is fitted with an integral pole
mount socket to allow the mid/high to be mounted at the correct height. Speakon NL4 connectors are
provided on the rear panel for input and parallel link connections.

System Requirements
The TMS system is a two-box bi-amped system and as such
requires an individual amplifier channel for each cabinet for
correct operation, the frequency splitting between the
mid/high cabinet and the low frequency cabinet being
accomplished by a loudspeaker management system or other
external crossover. The cabinets are each equipped with two
Neutrik Speakon NL4 connectors wired in parallel, serving as
both input and loop-out connections to additional speakers.
The Speakon wiring details are shown at the right. Four-core
loudspeaker cable should be used, wired pin 1+ LF positive,
pin 1- LF negative, pin 2+ mid/high positive, pin 2- mid/high
negative so that the same cable type can be used for either
cabinet. To avoid wasting amplifier power you should use
heavy-duty speaker cable with a minimum wire size of 12
gauge (1.5mm²), and preferably 10 gauge (2.5mm²) for longer
runs. Always observe the correct polarity as shown.
