2.ABOUT THE CERWIN-VEGA! TS-42 FOLDED HORN
Cerwin-Vega!, the industry leader in live bass and subwoofer innovations for over 50 years, is proud to introduce the new TS-42 Folded Horn. Featuring a massive 21 woofer with advanced Stroker™ technology and delivering 144 dB (max) of acoustic SPL output, the TS-42 sets a new standard for extended low frequency performance. In fact, the TS-42’s sound has been described as a “velvet covered wall-of-bass.”
The TS-42 Folded Horn delivers more bass per square inch than other subwoofer designs and offers incomparable performance. It includes a curved horn mouth bracing for smoother frequency response, a striking cast aluminum C-Series door that acts as a functional heat sink, and extra deep pole cups for increased stability with full-range speakers.
The TS-42 is a large and powerful speaker. However, portability is not a problem due to its ergonomic design. Integrated wheels and extra handles allow you to easily maneuver and transport the TS-42.
With its outstanding design and remarkable features, the TS-42 is the best-in-class bass speaker for demanding applications.
Main Features:
•Newly designed 21” woofer with Stroker™ technology for increased output and reduced distortion
•Improved power handling to 1000 w (RMS), 2000 w (Peak)
•Radial cooling fins located outside the aluminum Stroker™ pole, increase cooling and improve the TS-42’s efficiency
•Stroker™ pole is vented out the back of the back plate for improved voice coil cooling
•Aluminum cooling ring above voice coil gap for improved heat transfer from the voice coil, providing improved power handling and reduced compression
•Stroker™ technology adds a third plane of suspension eliminating cone rocking and allows increased excursion while maintaining a tight gap that provides higher sensitivity
•The six magnet sections and the tunnels located between them, provide cooling below the top plate
•Rugged new die cast door provides improved heat dissipation & displays Stroker™ metal badge
•New curved horn mouth bracing for smoother frequency response
•Steel front corner bracing to improve cabinet strength

3.BEFORE YOU BEGIN: SAFETY AND CARE FOR YOUR TS-42 FOLDED HORN
The TS-42 is designed for portable applications in which the speaker will be stacked directly on the floor, stage, or on a stable platform. Cerwin-Vega! Professional does not support suspension for the TS-42. Moisture can damage the speaker cone and surround and cause corrosion of electrical contacts. Avoid exposing the TS-42 to direct moisture. Keep the TS-42 out of extended or intense direct sunlight. The driver suspension will prematurely dry out and finished surfaces may be degraded by long-term exposure to intense ultra-violet (UV) light.
The TS-42 can generate considerable acoustic energy. When placed on a slippery surface such as polished wood or linoleum, the speaker may move due to its acoustical energy output. Precautions should be taken to assure that the speaker does not fall off a stage or platform on which it is placed.
The TS-42 includes a receptacle cup to allow mounting speakers on top of the subwoofer using a qualified speaker pole.
Cerwin-Vega! also provides integrated accessories that create system solutions for easy setup and tear down. The Cerwin-Vega! reinforced speaker pole (CVPOLE-1A) provides excellent support for any top speaker box that is compatible with industry standard 35 mm pole cups.
The Cerwin-Vega! CVANT-2A dual mount speaker system (along with the CVPOLE-1A speaker pole) provides the ability to elevate two CVA-28 full range active speakers on top of each subwoofer. For more information on these accessories or system configurations please visit us at: www.cerwin-vega.com.
When using speaker poles and accessories, please read carefully all documentation and observe the following precautions:
•Check the stand, pole, and accessories specifications to be certain they are designed to support the weight of the speaker or speakers.
•Observe all safety precautions specified by the accessories manufacturer.
•Always verify that the Cerwin-Vega! subwoofer is placed on a flat, level, and stable surface that can also support the entire weight of your system configuration.
•Route cables so that performers, production crew, and audience will not trip over them pulling the speaker over.
•Do not attempt to place more than one speaker on a pole designed for a single speaker.
•Always be cautious in windy, outdoor conditions.
•Unless you are confident that you can handle the weight of the speaker, ask another person to help you get it onto the pole and/or subwoofer.
Caution The TS-42 Folded Horn is capable of generating sound pressure levels (SPL) sufficient to cause permanent hearing damage to performers, production crew, and audience members. Caution should be taken to avoid prolonged exposure to SPL in excess of 90 dB.
