PRODUCT RANGE SUMMARY
TQ-310 passive two way loudspeaker
The TQ-310 is a trapezoidal passive full range two-way loudspeaker enclosure designed for use in
mobile speech and music sound reinforcement applications, including use as a floor monitor, as
well as in a wide range of fixed installations.
The loudspeaker complement consists of a front loaded 10” low frequency driver and a 1” high
frequency compression driver on a 100
°
H x 60
°
V HF waveguide, matched with an internal passive
crossover network.
The TQ-310 features Turbosound’s Converging Elliptical Waveguide™ (CEW™) technology. The
comparatively short flare allows physical alignment of the HF and LF devices, and ensures that the
wavefront is shaped smoothly, eliminating reflections in the throat area while giving excellent
pattern control. Additionally this design does not suffer from the distortion typical of horns
employing diffraction edges. The waveguide can be rotated within the enclosure, making it
possible to swap the horizontal and vertical coverage patterns, for example when installing the
TQ-310 horizontally. The quasi-trapezoidal enclosure has been designed with a 15° side angle on
one side, and with a 15° and 45° angle on the other. This shape allows the loudspeaker to be used
for ether front of house or as a floor monitor.
The TQ-310 includes the provision for fitting optional RT-767 ring-type fittings, two on the top and
one on the rear, enabling it to be suspended and angled in permanent installations as well as in
mobile applications. A pole mount socket is fitted for use with 35mm poles and speaker stands.
M10 rigging points are provided on the sides for horizontal orientation. It is also compatible with
optional Turbosound hardware, as well as Omnimount
and Powerdrive
brackets.
The cabinet is constructed from 12mm (1/2”) birch plywood, screwed and glued together for
maximum strength and rigidity, and includes a reticulated foam and steel mesh grille. It is finished
in durable semi-matt black textured paint; TurboBlue
textured paint is optionally available. A
rear panel connector plate carries two Neutrik Speakon NL4MP connectors for loop in and loop
out connections to additional enclosures.
The TQ-310 is intended for use with professional quality digital controllers providing at least five
parametric EQ points per output, and output limiting functions.
The TQ-310 is a full range loudspeaker, and used by itself will provide high quality audio for all
speech and many music reproduction applications. In order to extend the effective bass frequency
range of the loudspeaker by a further octave the use of the complementary TQ-115 or TQ-425
subwoofer is recommended.
