Description
In the TS940S, Electro-Voice has combined
itsexpertiseinconstant-directivityhorns,high-
frequency compression drivers and low-fre-
quency speakers and enclosures to produce a
compact, easily installed theatre stage system
withsuperiorperformanceinall areas: uniform
dispersion to the highest frequencies, high ef-
ficiency,highpowercapacityandwide,smooth
frequency response, all in a small, compact
system.
The TS940S matches the only second-genera-
tion constant-directivity high-frequency to a
world class high-frequency driver, providing
accurate reproduction and coverage of fre-
quency from 500 Hz to 20,000 Hz. Electro-
Voiceinventedconstant-directivitytechnology,
firstintroduced in our HR series horns in1974.
The HP horn in the TS940S is a significant
refinement. Constant directivity means that all
frequencies are evenly spread over the horn's
ratedcoverageangle, so every seat in the house
canreceivebothcleardialogueandsubtlehigh-
frequencyeffects.Forlow-frequencies,asingle
15-inch woofer is used in an optimally vented
radiating en
closure. The high-excursion
woofer is, mounted in an optimally vented,
Thiele-Small enclosure, provide high-impact
bassfrom40through800Hz,ataveragepow-
ers up to 800 watts, when required. In the
field, the TS940S's combination of high- and
low-frequency reproduction has proven to be
an excellent choice for small to medium size
houses.
The TS940S incorporates a number of in-
staller-recommended features, for quick,
trouble-free and low-cost installations.
Among these features is a dedicated cross-
over/equalizer that is easily flush mounted
in the pre-sized, pre-drilled hole located on
the side of the low-frequency enclosure. Side
mounting provides easy wiring access when
thesystemisinstalledagainst a wall. Through
the use of the horn mounting kit and pre-
drilled holes in the low-frequency section is
easily mounted in the proper position on top
of the low-frequency enclosure. All pre-
drilled holes are T-nut loaded, including the
bassdriver mounting holes. This means quick
and easy driver replacement. All components
of the TS940S are finished in matte black, to
eliminate any reflections back through the
screen.
