PRELIMINARY
INFORMATION
The TQ-310DP is a self-powered full range two-way
loudspeaker enclosure incorporating integral
amplifiers and control electronics. The use of DSP
amplifier technology ensures an exact match
between amplifier and speaker for optimum
acoustic output, and offers exceptional ease of use
by having the entire electro-acoustic system in one
convenient, easily transportable physical package.
It is designed for use in mobile speech and music
sound reinforcement applications as well as in a
wide variety of fixed installations.
The TQ-310DP features a new generation of
innovative digital power amplifier modules,
utilising revolutionary 96kHz DSP technology
to give operating efficiency in excess of 90%.
The loudspeaker complement consists of a
front loaded 10” low-mid frequency driver
and a 1” high frequency compression driver
on a rotatable 100°H x 60°V HF waveguide.
The TQ-310DP 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.
The rear panel carries a fully integrated Class
D amplifier and control electronics module,
which is field removable for servicing.
Providing two independent amplifier channels
each capable of delivering 800 watts rms into
8Ω, this module also incorporates high
performance limiters set to optimise the
continuous power and excursion threshold for
the specific loudspeaker model. A Speakon™
Powercon connector provides mains input to
the unit – the switch mode power supply is
auto-sensing over a range from 100 volts to
250 volts – and 3-pin XLR’s are used for input
and parallel link signal connections.
The cabinet includes a pole mount socket for
use with 35mm poles and speaker stands.
M10 rigging points are provided on the top,
bottom and sides for use with M10 shoulder
eyebolts. It is also compatible with optional
Turbosound pole 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.

QLIGHT™ SERIES ENGINEERING INFORMATION
Impedance A constant current circuit was used to measure the impedance. Frequency response The frequency response
shown was obtained by feeding a swept sine wave through the system in a full space environment. The position of the
microphone was vertically on-axis at a distance of 2 metres, then scaled to represent 1 metre. 2nd & 3rd Harmonic Distortion
Distortion measurements were obtained using an Audio Precision harmonic distortion analysis system and comply with
AES recommendations for enclosure measurement (AES paper ANSI S4-26-1984). Data Conversion All graphs were digitally
generated using the APEX custom software system, designed to translate data derived from Audio Precision ‘System
One’ test equipment into AutoCAD™. This program enables graphical information to be plotted to a high degree of
accuracy.
