System Requirements – Passive, Bi-amped and Tri-amped Loudspeakers 
The TCS-61 two-way loudspeaker operates as a passive system and 
requires only one amplifier channel for correct operation; the 
frequency splitting between the LF driver and the HF driver being 
accomplished by the internal passive crossover network built into 
each enclosure. It is equipped with a Speakon NL4 wired in parallel 
with a 4-way barrier strip connector, providing input and loop-through 
connections to additional TCS series loudspeakers. 
The TCS-122 and TCS-152 will operate either in bi-amp mode; or in 
one of three passive modes in which minor voicing adjustments are 
made within the crossover network depending on the supplied HF 
horn option, as indicated by the position of the internal jumper on the 
crossover setup section of the connector panel shown here (all 
models are shipped by default in passive mode). They are each 
equipped with a Neutrik Speakon NL4 connector wired in parallel with 
a 4-way barrier strip. The TCS-122 and TCS-152 two-way loudspeakers 
in bi-amped mode require two amplifier channels and an external 
electronic crossover. 
The TCS-1561 is a switchable bi-amp/tri-amp loudspeaker (shipped as 
bi-amp) requiring either two or three amplifier channels, together with 
an electronic crossover. All connections are provided on two parallel-
linked NL8 connectors. 
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. For extreme cable lengths be 
aware of cable impedance and resistive losses. Always observe the 
correct polarity as shown.
