70V or 100V line transformer systems
AQ5TX30, AQ6TX30 and AQ8TX30 loudspeakers are supplied with integral 30W line matching
transformers.
AQ10TX150, AQ12TX150, AQ15TX150 loudspeakers are supplied with integral 150W line
matching transformers.
TX30 or TX150 loudspeakers are supplied pre-wired, to customer order, for 70V or 100V operation.
Please note:
70V loudspeaker systems should not be connected to 100V line amplifiers as this could cause their
transformers to saturate resulting in gross distortion and possible line amplifier damage.
The line voltage for your TX30 or TX150 loudspeaker is clearly marked on the loudspeaker
connector panel.
