ALTO TS408 2000W 8" Powered PA Speaker

This speaker punches for it's size, I've also got 2 x TS415's and everyone comments on how great they sound. Alto is a misunderstood brand, the TS range of speakers are very well engineered and comparable to higher end and much higher priced speakers. Seriously, give these a go, you'll be happy.

I used these to host a large open-mic event where these were driven from an Behringer XR18 / Midas MR18. I drove them hard without additional active sub-bass cabs and was delighted with the bass response. Getting the right input signal level takes some effort and out of the box the output level can appear low [out of the box the gain and need initially configuring to your needs]. I used these with 15 inch active subs and they were more than adequate for the 250 person venue. I believe the sweet spot for these speakers is around 300 people. This comes down to getting to know the kit and its EQ app and levels etc. etc. and (of course)v reading the manual. If you pair these with some active subs (I have Behringer VPQ1500D) the sound produced can easily be uncomfortably loud indicating that when your TS415s are not trying to push the lower frequencies and are shelved correctly they can produce a crisp (clean) but muscular soundscape (supported bass). This us another case of read the flippin' manual to get this right (especially around signal routing). If you're looking to host a Drum and Bass band using just TS415 s on their own you'll be on to a loser but as part of a balanced active soundscape they certainly deliver the mid and top end. The bluetooth paring and play back is really handy during stand up and intervals but like everything with these active speakers will require you to *ACTUALLY* read the manual (especially if you want to pair the speakers to eachother and then pair your phone to the paired speakers). If you need an entry level digital sound processing active speaker product these are ideal and I would hazard a guess they push out about 120 dBa at 1M (at a push 125? - I'd like to get an accurate meter them to confirm) as opposed to the advertised 132 continuous and 135 peak. These are not an alternative to some of the higher end brands but will be ideal if you are looking to transition from bargain basement analogue into cheaper / mid-range digital sound processing kit and as a stepping stone to something higher quality. Recommended for gigging bands, open mics, solo shows in small, and medium venues up to around 250 people. My entire rig including subs fits in the back of a station-wagon / estate car.

Amazing, took the leap, connected the speak to my phone, then paired the speakers together, WOW! Not stop smiling since and telling anyone and everyone how good they are since having them! Just right for what I needed. Used in sports halls and a marquee around 500 plus people and volume not even all the way up! 🤓

With subs these speakers are amazing. Without, they need more push from a good quality mixer to get the most out of them. For the money, the quality is insane, and with the app you don't need a mixer for microphone use if you're just using them for announcements or some home karaoke with the built in Bluetooth.

I know Alto to be an affordable, reliable brand so when I was looking for a light portable mains powered speaker I chose the Alto TS410 2000W 10" speaker. A big thing for me was wireless connectivity for streaming, which it has via BlueTooth. Firstly I would say the 2000w is misleading, in terms of old fashioned power I would say its a good 100w RMS. Alto claim 130dB. To be sure for its size it is powerful. A pair are good for a small to medium size venue. The construction is rugged and robust. I have two of these, I bought the first one two years before buying a second. They are not super light but easy to cary with one hand and put on a speaker stand if needed. I use mine for live band, DJing and dance class work. The microphones can go direct into the speaker or via a PA mixer. I have used the BlueTooth and jack inputs with no problems and never have connctivity problems. There is a control panel that allows volume control of individual BlueTooth and jack inputs. A basic four option switchable tone control with preset equalisation and a custom option too. An app replicates the control panel and allows you to make adjustments to the CUSTOM tone control. I find this very useful when using a microphone plugged direct into one of the two jack/XLR inputs. Overall I find this speaker to be a great piece of kit. The sound quality is good but, dont push it. The size and power of the TS410 won't fill the Albert Hall but in a pub/club with upto 100 people it should be fine, which it is, in my experience.

These speakers are unbelievable out of the box, top quality, I have been in to sound/djing and producing and can honestly say these are amazing. I got the Ts415 and boy do they pack a punch. Now if you want to get a sweeter Sound check these Eq settings out. They really give extra warmth to the sound that these can produce. Select (1) Gain +6 Center frequency 50hz Q Value 0.3 Select (2) Gain +3 Center frequency 100hz Q Value 0.3 Select (3) Gain +3 Center frequency roughly 2500 Q value 0.3 Select (4) Gain +3 Center frequency roughly 5000 Q value 0.3 Select (5) Gain +3 Center frequency roughly 10000 Q value 0.3 Select (6) Gain +3 Center frequency roughly 15000 Q value 0.3 After making all of these changes hit save and store it as a custom preset. (QSC or what ever you want to call the setting) Then press "LOAD TO SPEAKER" Your custom preset will now be these settings. This custom preset works for the TS408, 10, 12 and 15. Enjoy!

Great purchase only after I purchased they went down in price wasn't impressed.

These speakers punch way above their weight and compete with much more expensive models, like RCF & Yamaha, yes they don’t carry the name, and yes they are manufactured in China, however, do your research on YouTube as there are plenty of non bias reviews demonstrating their build quality who have taken them apart to assess. They also come with drivers that are found in much more expensive speakers. Again, research it. I’ve been running two of these now for a while on DJ mode (which extends the bass) at nearly max volume and they have not missed a beat, no distortion, they are a superb product which offer serious bang for buck. Alto really did nail this range. For context I also own two TS18s and they are also absolute monsters that hammer more expensive competitors. Again, do your research. Some people will slam this brand, and laugh at these even being taken seriously…. Until they hear them and A/B test them. For a 15” loudspeaker, the way these hit the lows is incredible really.

Nöjd med högtalaren, levererades med en liten skada men Amazon supporten löste det supersnabbt!

EXCELENTE producto. Sin duda CALIDAD, POTENCIA Y SONIDO de NIVEL PROFESIONAL. Justifica plenamente el COSTO SUPERIOR al de productos similares. Si buscas un equipo profesional, ésta es una excelente opción.

Prese 2 TS412 per sostituire 2 Mackie da 15” che erano molto più ingombranti ed avevano meno potenza. Ottime casse, suono pulito e le usiamo per i nostri piccoli concerti. In abbinata con 2 Subwoofer Alto TS12S copriamo tranquillamente spazi per 300-400 persone senza ammazzarci la schiena. Abbiamo anche 5 Alto TX310 e TX410 che usiamo come monitor/spie ed hanno potenza più che sufficiente per fare il loro lavoro. Consigliatissime sotto tutti i punti di vista +++

Great product

Excellente enceinte. Les réglages à l'arrière et sur l'appli donnent entièrement satisfaction et l'option de choisir. Le châssis est en plastique et non en bois mais solide avec grille métallique. Puissance: c'est là où elle excelle et très clean même poussée à fond surtout en mode mic. Je ne m'attendais pas à autant de patate d'une 10". On est pas sur de la qualité QSC mais pas sur le prix non plus. La TS410 est un peu un couteau de boucher extrêmement affûté, là où une QSC K10.2 est un scalpel pour la précision. 2 petits inconvénients : 1-la BT est stable mais la voix qui signale la connexion est trop forte et on ne peut rien y faire. 2-En mode BT, pour éviter des soucis de latence la sortie vers le caisson de basse n'est pas activée et ça peut être problématique. Il faudra donc passer par un récepteur BT supplémentaire pour le faire, ce qui rend celle équipée dans l'enceinte inutile. Bref, je recommande vivement. Rapport qualité-prix de dingue.
