An exceptionally sturdy and rigid cabinet is the basis of each of the three models, ensuring extraordinary control of the drive unit and minimising unwanted cabinet resonance. [. . . ] XLR sockets are provided for direct connection to the mixing desk and output to active main speakers. The output can be selected as either a direct feed or switched to provide an 80Hz HIPASS function. Occupying less than a cubic foot of space including the cone-shaped spiked feet, the TS8 is ideally suited to small home studios, while the TS10 and 12 have the performance to deliver in professional postproduction and mastering facilities. Other features include an auto power on and sleep function whereby the system will go into a `stand-by' mode if no signal is detected for approximately 12 minutes. Soft-clip limiting is incorporated to limit the maximum sound output in order to eliminate audible distortion. Gain BASH® amplifier technology is utilised in these subwoofers; a patented high efficiency power amplifier circuit topology that has taken the best of Class D and Class AB and created a new Class of its own. [. . . ] Very high-power amplifiers are fitted (200 / 300 and 500 Watts RMS to the TS 8 / TS10 and TS12 respectively) ensuring there is ample power to reproduce dynamic movie scores. and phase controls are provided to allow easy adjustment for output level and precise matching with the room and the rest of the system.
