Ten2 drivers are assembled on a new robotic production line at the company’s manufacturing facility. Constant airflow through proprietary Precision Tuned Venting (PTV) is designed to facilitate efficient cooling around the magnet assembly and voice coils. The cooling potential is further optimized through custom coil winding that utilizes a hybrid multilayer, inside/outside methodology. PTV and the coil structure combine for significant reduction of power compression and thermal stress to help maximize product lifespan and performance longevity. The TSQ2460 has a stated continuous power rating of 4800 watts (estimated continuous) due to the cooling offered by the PTV system together with a proprietary voice coil outfitted with advanced heat resistant adhesives. Ten Squared Series Reconfigured Magnet Assembly is designed to allow greater cone excursion and a higher Xprotection level. The driver’s motor strength and mechanical compliance reach their defined Xprotection limit at practically the same point to help achieve low0distortion performance, even during high excursion. This capability is complemented by a unique Polysiloxane Laminated Dual Suspension design intended to enable the driver’s suspension system to work much harder without losing stiffness, providing better coil control and reduced likelihood of DC shift while simultaneously increasing speaker longevity. Ten2 drivers incorporate laser-cauterized holes in the suspension to reduce whipping to enhance durability and logevity. They also include protections against the elements through solvent application on the loudspeaker cone to protect against water and humidity. |

Need the parameters to see what type of cab/s it's suited for and then get to designing the cab from there. Celestion have had some good prices in the past and some excellent trade prices. As LIGWA is the celestion man i'm sure we'll see some well priced loaded cabs at some point hopefully

Neat, I hadn’t seen the specs for it yet. That looks like it might stand up to some light duty horn loading. It could also be a reasonable replacement for the old Turbo TSW-124s since the original drivers for those are either dead or a liability.
It’ll be interesting to see who the OEM customer that made this financially viable is

Bit strange there is no 4ohm option listed. With the advertised power handling I would have thought 4ohms would have been better matched to most high power amps (obviously many users would use bridged mode to get suitable output).

For sidefills, can we have two enormous things of a type that might be venerated as Gods by the inhabitants of Easter Island, capable of reaching volumes that would make Beelzebub soil his pants.

Just looked at parms, would be so easy, designing a Scoop for these. Would also be a great, for a Scaled up Folded horn.. I would have preferred slightly larger Qes, so it would sound even warmer with less Eq, but the upside of that, is good efficiency.

Also Luke, I'll give you one guess, which 18" Scoop, the TSQ1845 18", will slam in !! ![]() |

Didn't someone here make some simply enormous scoop-type horns for the old PD2450? I seem to remember seeing some photos of some on here, gosh, must be 15 years ago now?
