I have tms-2 serial 2 & 4, serial 1 & 3 have burned. Pics to come soon.
They will be for sale soon or I'll swap them for four other tms-2s, I want something that I can bare to bring around! I want to fit the drivers inside that the boxes was originally born with.

Meanwhile you can have a look at this pic, new painted tms-2s, half of my system (without subs:-)
AND YES: They will be SPLAYED before use!


6 turbo tms-2s + 12 tt1000 bph

That looks like tfl-760 with tse-118 under?
Tops are not really that old.

Just stumpled upon 360 tms-3s on my way, often heard about this, but never saw the pic before:

360!? I thought they "only" had 96! Didn't anyone think about comb filter back then?

Hi does anyone know how low the 2x15's go in the tb3020. From a brochure madboffin posted I got 300 18lr crossover between the 15s and 10's and bullets up to 16khz.

The 3020 will go as low as a TB215, or the later TSE215, which was listed as 60Hz. However if you stack some together they will go lower. 4 x 215's was pretty good.

Looks like it. Here is a larger pic of it in action - the stacked low mids seem to be correct in the original post.

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.

Is that a bit of two-by jammed between mids for splaying?
music is the message

Probably - that 'rigging' and cab design was probably worked out later in the evolution of Turbosound. Probably the positioning/stacking of the cabs would have been found out through trial & error - as are most things - and if the system had a Version 2, this would have been designed into the cabs. I don't think there was a V2 of the festival system, so probably Flashlight would have been the next generation and encompassing all the modifications & changes that were required.
