ATHENS TCS212B

The 3,200-Watt TCS212B is a high performance dual 12" subwoofer system that is ideally suited for a wide range of speech and music sound reinforcement applications. Engineered to work in conjunction with TURBOSOUND loudspeaker management systems, the TCS212B provides very high output, extended low frequency performance from a compact enclosure.

The dual port band pass design ensures symmetrical high velocity and low turbulence airflow that yields reduced distortion both in the port and the drivers, which are loaded by identical compartments in a force-cancelling arrangement. Each of TCS212B’s two high excursion 12" low frequency drivers utilize a specialised voice coil wound on both the inside and outside of the coil former for higher magnetic density, better heat dissipation, higher power handling capacity, and improved efficiency. The TCS212B generates ample amounts of high definition bass energy in a space saving form factor, regardless of its position in the room – even when placed beneath seating areas. Finished in a highly durable semi matt black paint, the cabinet is constructed from 15 mm (5⁄8") birch plywood with integral M10 threaded rigging points. The rear connection plate carries an industry-standard twist-lock speaker connector and a barrier strip connector for input and link connections to additional enclosures.
