Hi All
Been looking at both of these active speakers, TQ is 3 way, about 10kg higher, slightly older model compared TCS but in terms of sound quality etc how do they compare, my understanding is that newer Turbo speakers are not as good as the older models but would like your opinion before I commit Many thanks

Afaik early TQ series had real PD drivers with cast chassis the later TCS range were pressed steel from a lessor brand and the durability & voicing suffered accordingly. More aerobics class than rock & roll.

Thanks for the feedback, I did think the later versions of Turbo are not as good as the earlier ones, only the weight is slightly putting me off as they are 40kg. I believe the amp module in TCS is also Linear research.
