With the HEDD Tower Mains, we open up new horizons for full range studio monitoring systems and to what they can do and mean for the sound engineer. The HEDD Tower Mains let you rediscover what decisive role dynamics play in audio reproduction and how pivotal they are to achieve the highest degree in realism and authenticity. They are more than just tools: They give recording and mastering engineers superior acoustic control over their work.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Modern Main Monitoring Systems have to be cost-effective and flexible enough to work in every possible studio environment.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>That\u2019s why we designed the HEDD Tower Mains with a modular approach in mind.<\/p>\n

They consist of one main unit (TM 80) that can be combined with either 1 or 2 subwoofers per channel. Each sub incorporates 4 drivers in a closed box design and 1.200\u2009W of amplification. The Tower Mains components can be arranged flexibly, depending on the size and geometries of your working space. Due to a sophisticated filter design, you always will have a seamless transition and homogeneous sound: spectacular analog performance meets great versatility.<\/p>\n

In the search for precision it was decided to apply closed box designs only as they principally allow the best approximation to ideal transient behaviour. The 3\u2009dB lower efficiency compared to ported designs is compensated and even exceeded by having multiple drivers and enormous amplifier power. The TM 80 main unit with its five speakers in a vertically symmetrical alignment \u2013 a quasi d\u2019Appolito configuration with the HEDD Air Motion Transformer as the centerpiece \u2013 delivers broad horizontal dispersion but a controlled vertical directivity. Thus unwanted reflexions from the ground or the ceiling are reduced.<\/p>\n

The TM 80 is driven by 3x 300\u2009W amplifiers with a response down to 80\u2009Hz. The matching TMS 36 subwoofer comes with four 9\u201d no-compromise long throw drivers and 1.200\u2009W of amplifier power \u2013 300\u2009W per woofer to be more specific. Back to back sitting drivers compensate their impact to the enclosure thus avoiding cabinet resonances, their frequency response starts at 20 Hz (-3\u2009dB) and stops at 80\u2009Hz (-6\u2009dB). The TMS 36 Subwoofer delivers an astounding transient response up to very high SPL levels.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The driving force in the TMS 36 Subwoofer unit are ICEpower 1200 AS2 modules, a combination of two 1200\u2009W amplifiers and one 1200\u2009W switching power supply. They are a new generation of PWM amplifiers with astounding performance and corresponding technical data. They compare favorably to even the most sophisticated High End amplifiers on the market.<\/p>\n

If the woofers are driven in the same frequency band \u2013 which is the case here \u2013 the ICE modules deliver 600\u2009W each due to the current limitation of the power supply. The advantage of this configuration is that they can output higher voltage peaks than what they can deliver in RMS current, for transients this is more important than the sheer RMS power. So each of the 4 drivers in a TMS 36 subwoofer gets 300\u2009W continuous power with additional headroom. The woofers have an 8\u2009\u03a9 impedance, each amplifiers drives 2 units in parallel, so each unit is directly connected to an amplifier.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
