Particular attention should be paid to corrosion. Any corroded parts should be replaced. All
flying system bolts are fitted using “Loctite 222” to ensure that bolts cannot loosen. As a
result any replacement parts must be fitted with the same type of Loctite threadlocker.
It is essential that the droplinks are regularly checked on each cabinet for any permanent
deformity. Damaged flying hardware should never be used for stacking or lifting under any
circumstances.
Paintwork
Turbosound Aspect Series enclosures are coated with industry-standard Warnecke and Bohm
water-based paint.
This has several advantages: it is pollution-free and therefore safe to apply in a suitable
vented area, and it offers the greatest strength and bond properties possible from a water-
based wood paint. A primer coat is not required on bare wood, and paint may be applied
successfully on top of existing coats, ensuring simple maintenance in the field.
However as with any loudspeaker enclosures used in typical touring conditions it is essential
that paintwork is regularly and sensibly maintained to ensure longevity.
Aspect series enclosures offer an extremely compact package to deal with the requirements
of modern touring and as such are a relatively dense wooden enclosure. Should regular
impacts cause the paint to crack it is essential that this is dealt with quickly and efficiently to
prevent further damage. Observe the following precautions:
• remove any loose flakes caused by the impact
• gently sand the top surface of the paint
• roll the enclosure with a single thick coat of paint
• wait 3 hours and apply a second coat
• do not expose to moisture for a further 24 hours
Should serious damage happen to an enclosure (for example if it is dropped) it may be
necessary to fill and respray the enclosure. This should be done by an experienced paint
shop. if you require any help with this please contact Turbosound or your local dealer for
service advice.
