Ampli er Considerations
LIVERPOOL series loudspeakers are optimized for use with LAKE LM series controllers and LAB GRUPPEN ampli ers or LAB GRUPPEN DSP ampli ers with
LAKE processing. A full range of DSP presets to suit a variety of con gurations is provided for download on the TURB
OSOUND website where limiters, crossover points,
corrective component time alignment and equalisation are pre-programmed to ensure optimum sound quality and long-term reliability. Use LAB GRUPPEN ‘CAFE’
software - available for download from labgruppen.com - to determine the optimum ampli er con guration for yo
ur system. Parameters for the use of third party
ampli cation and processing can be provided upon request.
LIVERPOOL series loudspeaker enclosures should be driven by high quality power ampli ers designed for true professional use. The use of under po
wered
ampli ers must be avoided as heavily clipped signals can cause permanent loudspeaker damage. For subwoofers, passive loudspeakers and low frequency, mid
frequency sections of multi-way active loudspeakers, ampli ers should be capable of delivering power equal to twice the cont
inuous power rating at the stated
nominal impedance. For the high frequency section of multi-way active loudspeakers, ampli ers should be capable of delivering power equal to ten times the
continuous power rating at the stated nominal impedance.

NOTE: Power 1x TLX215L or 2x TLX212L subwoofers per ampli er channel (4 ohm load)
NOTE: Since TLX subwoofers are wired 1+/- = LF1||LF2; 2+/- = LINK, in order to power multiple TLX212L or TLX215L enclosures, it is advised to cons
truct SUB LINK
cables wired: 2+ -> 1+ and 2- -> 1- . A single NL4 cable from LAB GRUPPEN bi-wired NL4 outputs (Channel 1 = 1+/-; Channel 2 = 2+/- or Channel 3 = 1+/-;
Channel 4 = 2+/-) connects to the rst TLX21
5L subwoofer then the SUB LINK cable jumps to the second TLX215L subwoofer, providing one TLX215L subwoofer per
ampli er channel. For TLX212L, standard NL4 link cables can be used in conjunction with SUB LINK cables to power two TLX212L subwo
ofers per ampli er channel.
Refer to wiring diagrams below for further details.
