Avideo for those that were curious on what was on the inside of a Alto ts315 powered speaker! "DONT CLICK LINK" : bit.ly/2TitahK MUSIC: FreeBackgroundMusic Natan x Athif - Stars • Video
I know this feeling. I enjoy when stuff is brandnew and perfect. And just like you I would absolutely hate to take it apart. So I really appreciate you did it for us! Cheers, dude. 😁
I really appreciate you making this video with your brand new speakers. I just order a pair from Alto. I had the lower end model before these. TX215. They were still awesome
One important tip... When re-assmebling, you should lay the cab flat on it's back, and set the basket in, and then put the screws in, loose all around, then tighten in a star pattern just like bolts on a car. Doing it vertical can put it slightly off flush, and tightening the bolts the screws the way you did can warp the basket, causing the voice coil to distort, which causes rubbing, then very quickly, a blown speaker. So, in the future, lay that cabinet down, and take care it tightening the screws.
I’m pretty sure he did it on a stand so we could see everything clearly. He made the sacrifice for us lol. I took my grill off when mine was brand new and didn’t want to go past that after I noticed the horn was part of the cab. I wanted to fit the drivers and amp into a guitar cabinet so I still had a guitar amp look on stage with my new modeler. Finally going to do it now that covid stuff is pretty much done.
I took apart the Alto TS215. The difference is that the magnet size is smaller on the 215. Also if I remember correctly, the 215 only had a single lined woofer where the 315 has a double pleated line going around the woofer. They beefed up both the woofer and tweeter on the TS3 series over the TS2. They went real cheap with the tweeters on the TS2 series for sure. I blew two tweeters in that model line, and I didn't even blast them. They would just over heat too easily. The replacement tweeters were only $34. The tweeters in the TS3 series are almost double the price to replace them, and the heat sync is much better.
How the guys do it, without a big magnet? What do you about the technology and the sound quality of these speakers in comparison with classical old speaker systems?
Most of you guys are missing the point of these speakers and comparing them to top quality speakers like ev jbl etc these speakers are cheap very competitive pricing for what your getting its meant to be an affordable speaker that can deliver lots of volume sound at a low price so if ur starting u dont have to spend lots of money for ppl to compare it to top brands that cost an arm and leg or say that id rather have this than that obviously everyone would choose the top brand but it isnt about that its about what your getting for your $$$ and that is a nice sounding speaker with lots of volume whether u can admit it to yourself or not for the money its damn worth it and seems like alto hit their goal
What a load of rubbish JBL range is far better, if Alto was that good how come hire companies don't have them for hire, reason they are not reliable as the use cheap drivers internally, you get what you pay for, simples.
Hey Craig I got a ridgeway professional Bluetooth speaker my sister gave it to me. There's a few wires loose and I thought it be a good video if interested let me know ty
I was considering buyer the Alto ts315..but after seeing the crappy inside & cheap looking control board I will not... yahama speakers are way better constructed!..thank you for making my decision easier 👍!
I have a pair of these Alto TS315 and worth the money and sound. They hit harder then the So called Yamaha's. So if people want to get these. They are worth it. Great video
@@2800boy agreed, I have the 18" version. 2000 watts from that bad boy is a game changer. I remember doing a Christmas Party. It was nice. I was braking it in. Going to buy another on soon.
Thank you for the video. I'd like to know if (as other reviewers say) the 1000w RMS are not real. I'm interested in them but I need at least a pair of real 600w speakers. Do you think they reach at least 600w?. I have a jazz trio and i'm looking for two speakers WITHOUT subs for 100-150 people...thank you in advance.
We run a pair of these for oir sunday meetings inside a cinema housing 250 people... Sound is loud and crisp... We're looking for a sub that could match its rms...
@@alvarodelapuerta619 in my personal opinion, the overall clarity is very good, although an additional subwoofer would realy be great. When we play music, it's close to listening to a balanced headphones... Not too bassy not too much highs. If you have the chance to hear for yourself, then you can make the final decision if it's worth buying. But for me i would say it's bang for the buck.
Stop thinking in terms of power output. Start thinking in terms of how loud they are. More power in the amplifier of an active cab doesn't mean it'll be louder. It just means there's more power. It might not go as loud as a lower powered active speaker! Loudness is a function of amplifier power, cabinet design & driver sensitivity. Don't rely on the manufacturer's claimed specs for loudness (SPL) either.. they're typically only calculated (calculate using theoretical max amplifier output * driver sensitivity, yada) - or if they're measured it's generally the loudest peak they can produce before the amplifer's limiter kicks in - so the peak SPL might only be for a millisecond or so. We often see manufacturers claiming ridiculous figures like 134dB at 1m for a single active cab.. this is utter BS.. . If you've ever heard a serious PA rig & used a calibrated SPL meter in front of it, you'll realise that it takes quite a lot of pretty expensive gear to produce a sustained output of 114dB. My advice - go demo some. Compare them against something you might be familiar with, then judge for yourself. Trust your own ears, not the LIES manufacturers are peddling.
Removing the acoustic damping material would make the speaker cabinet sound slightly louder as it's introducing standing waves within the cabinet, but it will give an undesirable awful sound, it definitely won't increase the bass, a close friend bought 4 of these and he wanted more bass so we fitted the Eminence Kappa-15LFA (4 ohms) glued and lined the entire cabinet with more BAF wadding approximately 100mm worth avoiding the amplifier, (heat) the difference was massive, albeit now slightly heavier.
Is this really 1000w RMS? I'm seeing some reviews saying that the clean volume is more likely to be around 300w. Why would they advertise 1000w when it's much lower?
Hi there, just got a pair of 312's and I'm noticing a hissing sound when volume is off on both speakers when putting your ears close to the horn tweeters. is that normal? for the price to performance ratio.... i cant complain, primarily for home use.
I had the same problem. N i get some distorting sound when i play the volume low. When i connect it to my keyboard n play a beat it distorts with the kick of the bass drum from the beat, but as i increase the sound the distortion can't be heard. What is the problem u feel?
Those "goofy locking connectors" are called fastons. One faston, two fastons etc. Just in case you want to up your tech knowledge :) PS: all you need to do is pull hard to get them off
@@Tech360Dallas omg Yamaha DSR112's are in a different league to these you can't even compare. Plus they are different size speakers. Saying that a yamaha dsr112 will blow a ts315 away anyway in every respect. I only have altos for people who can't lift the Yamaha's now.

2000 watts is this speaker’s peak power rating, it will consume around 800-1000w of power on average most of the time during usual use. (1000w is it’s average power consumption rating to my knowledge, I don’t know if that’s correct though)
Silviu Prunaru well I say “Monster” because ive seen other powered speakers with small magnets .. like this one was around 5 1/2 wide and a few others ive seen are about 3” wide..
Question here please , one of my set the woofer is blown, my question is , do I need to replace it with the same speaker or can I buy a more expensive one and replace it and will it give me a better quality sound
When the guy removed the 15" driver you can see that it's a cheap non branded unit, you can change it for a decent driver such as a B&C, PD (precision Devices) Beyma, 18Sound, there are many quality brands out there but Alto use cheap drivers that have a low SPL. but you get what you pay for, fit a PD driver and it will sound twice as loud for the same level input, mind you will have to pay more, why do you think Alto is so cheap, answer, they use cheap components.
@Phil Ellis Hi I am currently using a technics se-800s power amplifier and a su-c800u pre amplifier and I would like a nice speaker to supplement it, can you give me a list of some, its only for my bedroom.

@@philipellis4530 Thanks at the moment I am currently using four Wharfdales 2190 and they have nice clarity, but distort under high stress loads, I just wanted a bit more warmth and low end bass, and my bedroom is big the main bedroom of the house.

If you’re a music fanatic/ speaker freak you’d understand that these truly are about 1000 rms I have one and 1/4 of volume I can hear my music for blocks its loud and clear
Actually, the 3 series is 2000 watts. I have 2 of the TS312 FRFR cabs, and though they may not really be 2000 watts, or even 1000, they are louder than I would ever need them to be.
Learn what RMS is and PEAK power. Those are rated 2000 watt PEAK. Btw you can't put false claims on the box in EUROPE because of Laws here. They are also sold in Europe. And btw digital amplifiers that look small can house a lot of power because of smart distribution and chips in it.
I'm still trying to work out how they have the cheek to call them Professional, if they were that good how come PA hire company's don't stock them, buy cheap buy twice, lol
The Alto brand is good value for your buck and look good but that's all I can say about them, but you get what you pay for, as you can see inside and you will find they use cheap and cheerful components, the woofer doesn't have a recognised brand name such as JBL, EV, RCF, PD, 18Sound, B&C, FANE or Eminence just cheap non branded units, use them for a dozen gigs turned up and you will blow the drivers especially the tweeter, and forever replacing them, we have upgraded many 15" woofers to Eminence Kappa Pro 15. it will definitely be twice as loud for the same volume setting but double the price. The tweeters which they call a compression driver is forever failing as yet can't find a 'screw on' replacement tweeter that can fit the horn, the amount of people that blow the tweeter is amazing, again cheap as chips. If you want a decent system steer clear of this over rated brand and how they can call them Professional I'm still baffled, think about this if they were that good how come hire company's don't have them available, simple they are not reliable and with the slightest abuse from so called Dj's they will come back burnt out.
@@batmandeltaforceThey may use cheap components but who cares if they are better than JBLs and QSC and many more..The TS3 series are phenomenal and are issue free...Older models yes had problems but the new series are incredible...
Been using a pair of TS312s since they came out! No problems at all! I probably have over 100 gigs on this pair now! I had the TS215 speakers, and blew a tweeter on one of them on the 4th event I did with that pair! The TS3 series definitely uses better quality tweeters. I still have a pair of TS110A speakers that are 10 years old now. Never had a problem with that pair either. The sound quality is fantastic on the TS3 series! These are the best bang for buck speakers out there imo.
@@batmandeltaforce Sounds like you must of bought a pair of these cabinets, if they were as good as you proclaiming speak to hire companies who wouldn't touch them as they are unreliable, maybe good for fold back or monitors where you won't turn them up.
@@djrickyb 12" loudspeakers are only good for fold back or monitors, surely you don't use them out on stage, there's hardly any bass from a 12" driver unless you're playing in your lounge, the piston area (cone) is too small, maybe you have some 18" subs to back them up.

Consider the DB more so than watts 🤔
what if you used only 1/2 of that insulation? would you get more bass?
I think the foam helps keep the vibration and reverb out of the plastic.. And give it a little more tight sound.
