What's the same? What's different? What do I think about it?
Please feel free to comment or ask questions. Thank you!

Answering your last question- its because they wanted to retain volume control at the app. If it was a normal rotary knob its physical relative position could differ from its actual setting.
So it will show the volume on the app?
@@Martin915_ Yes! Is to sync volumen in App / With Vol Buttom on Phone / Knob
@@lexbenitez but what if you have a mixer and want to control volume from there?
The 10" woofer on the 3 series had a 2.5" voice coil crossed at 2.5 kHz, while the new 4 series has a 2" voice coil crossed at 2k. (TS3 went down to 54hZ, TS4 down to 57 hZ) The TS410 is also slightly larger by about 1/2 inch. The new app might be handy for some folks s well. Unity is achieved with the volume knob all the way up (5 O'Clock position) for the appropriate source.
So they gone backwards 😂 people need to understand drivers more on the VC 2” VC now
I’ve got the TS415 and i have no complaints it sounds amazing and it doesn’t feel or sound cheap
That's what the display is for!!! Infinite knobs are great when there's a screen displaying all the values... 🙂
Great overview - thanks! Just FYI, "unity" has no real meaning for a power amp. Unity means the signal passes through unamplified - so that shouldn't really be a concern for powered speakers.
Just got mine a few weeks ago. So far so good.
Nice! Enjoy it! These are awesome speakers.
they made the bluetooth volume nob a rotary control so you can adjust the bluetooth volume without jumping from whatever the phone set it for, to the volume of the nob. otherwise it might go from loud to quiet or vice-versa abruptly
Great video. I have a pair of TS310's, which are great speakers. My only (very small) complaint is the limited EQ, when I use it as a single speaker with a digital piano, and I need to add an EQ pedal to get the sound I want. Other than that, the TS310 is great. The TS410, if the custom EQ is easy to operate through their app, might be a nice upgrade.
Thank you. I agree with you. I would sometimes need a small mixer with the TS310. The new app is a great upgrade.
I have TS415 and i love it I’m so impressed with it
Great job Bro this is how a sound competition speaker test should be i enjoyed your video a lot. Thank you,Bravo 🎉
Thank you!
Just found your channel JP,very cool
Sounds like for my personal needs and uses, I will stick with the 310 and 210 speakers that I already own. Some of these changes on the 410 don’t quite work for me and my needs.
Had a pair of the ts 315 tops and it sounds great. Now i own the TS 415 and these sound awesome with the TS 315 Sub. Alto is a great company. Hopefully they will make these in white for the wedding DJs such as myself
Agreed. I'm waiting for the white ones too.
@@gtaspeakerrentals7597 any word if that’s in the works
@@djchinotsp0422 No, I have not heard anything about that.
@DJCHINOTSP could you please suggest if pair of TS415 (without subwoofer) should be enough for indoor wedding (50-100 pax)? Thx
@@38dell absolutely. I did a U.S.marine event for about 150 people and it did the job
Hi! I’m very new to live music and was wondering if you can use a mixer with these types of speakers
Yes. When plugging it in, make sure it’s set to “line” and not “mic”
I have two EV 15" speakers and needed a couple more to cover a wider area. I tried two TS415s and was shocked by how low the gain range is (line level). I have to keep the knob maxed and they still aren't as loud as my EVs at mid-gain settings. 🤷🏼♂️ Im not dogging on them, just a bit perplexed.
I know exactly what you mean. Sometimes I keep it on MIC when I'm plugging in a line. Have you tried playing with the EQ on the app? That'll help a bit too.
@@gtaspeakerrentals7597 I'm not sure if I'm happy or bummed that it's not just mine. 😄 Guess I'll be using a dB meter to match them on-site... wonderful.
Which of these would sound best with an acoustic guitar?
@@markerf16 either of them would be fine as long as you use a mixer.
does the older TX310 sound similar to TS310?
The TS series is far more powerful and clearer than the TX series.
I have ts212 .. I am thinking about ts412 . What about sound ?? Thank you
Yes, it is a big improvement. Clearer and louder for sure.
@gtaspeakerrentals7597 thank you 😊 🙏
What do you think of the Alto TS410 in general? I've ordered an Alto TS415, but also thinking about getting a smaller one for the occasions where i dont want/need to bring the 15 to places. Is the 410 fairly loud? It says 130db peak and 127db continuous, however it's hard to know how loud it is until you hear it for yourself. How would you judge its loudness and sound quality compared to other PA speakers? And can two different sizes (e.g. 415 and 410) be linked up via the app via bluetooth? Great video btw.
In general, it's a good speaker. Loud and clear. I'd use it for an audience of about 50 people. Maybe even a bit more than that. Compared to speakers in a similar price range, I think Alto wins. Mackie might have better bass response, but Alto delivers clean overall. In theory, you should be able to link different sizes, but I wouldn't recommend it, unless its a case where a ts415 is for the audience, and ts410 is the monitor for the performer. Thank you
Hi do you know the frequency cut for the sub button ? or maybe i can choose "no sub" and cut the low the frequency where i want (140 Hz) with the app, correct ? , thank you
Large is 80Hz, medium is 95Hz, small is 110Hz. Otherwise you can customize with the app.
I had a TS 310 and just bought the TS 410 and I have to tell you that the 410 is worse. Although in the shop they told me that it was more powerful, that is not true and the sound is not as clear and clean as the TS 310
I agree with you 100%
@@gtaspeakerrentals7597….well that sucks!
410 sounded worse in what sense?
Hi thanks for vidéo , a question : is better
Alto ts410 or MACKIE THUMP 215
?? Thanks
I prefer the Alto. The Mackie does have more low end.
Good evening, I am thinking of buying a TS410 (only one) to use with the PC, also to use with a DJ controller, but only one speaker, is it possible or would there be a problem with the sound? Or would it be necessary to have two TS410s? thank you.
It’s possible. If you’re doing stereo output from the controller, the speaker has 2 inputs. Otherwise mono is fine.
What’s the reliability of these speakers? Do they last or have a lot of issues?
So far, I've had no issues. With the previous line, I did have to replace the tweeters after a few years of use.
Beetwen the ts310 and ts410 wich one will you recommend im a dj im seeking for something that ll work for me thanks hope u can respond
The great thing about TS410 is the Bluetooth pairing and wireless linking. If you don’t care about Bluetooth, the TS310 is excellent.
Is the TS410 good for singing in a central street? (Busking) 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
It's not a battery powered speaker, so if you can find an outlet, sure it's good! You can make your vocals sound a bit better by adjusting the EQ with the app. There are probably better options for busking though.
I would like to know how they sound on flat and compare
Is 408 frfr like Headrush 108/112? Or it's not flat response?
Thanks
Yes, it is flat response. Personally, I find the Alto speakers to be more versatile than Headrush. But they are very similar.
Hello anyone who knows the best way to connect with smartphone except bluetooth for the best audio quality? You must buy a mixer or just a cable?
You can do it with a cable: 1/8" TRS male to dual 1/4" TS male cable
@@gtaspeakerrentals7597 Thank you very much
So when we get no Bluetooth out on the speakers, a sub cannot be connected? As I see, there is no Alto Sub with Bluetooth.(Normally goes sound to the sub, this makes the HF/LF and goes to the main speakers.) I see there is a Sub setting.. Can you try, if it is set, than the signal for the sub is present at the speaker out?
The sub setting is for connecting to the sub with an XLR cable.
Do they have updated drivers specially the HF?
Yes they do
I’m considering getting some ts412 or ts4125’s but haven’t been able to listen to either setup yet in person.
For typical house party type events, would a pair of 412’s have enough low end without a sub (Which I’d be looking at adding down the line at some point) or better to go the 415’s?
If it's for house parties, I'd say the 412s would be more than enough.
@@gtaspeakerrentals7597 thanks for the reply. I managed to get to a store which had both available to test & yeh think the dual ts412 will be fine. Ts415 didn’t have *that* much more oomph and adding a sub to the ts412 during testing was better overall than the ts415 (as you’d probably expect).
thanks for the video. I have a question about the subwoofer. There are not subwoofer for those models, I mean there are not subwoofer Ts415s. the subwoofer model Ts315s or 318s behind they have the option DSP Output Mode (Ts308, Ts310, Ts312, Ts315, High pass, Bypass). So, those new speakers can work for example with the subwoofer ts135s or Ts318s? Thanks!
Yes it will work. And you can use the high pass and bypass too. You can just pick whichever sounds better to you.
I think the new subwoofers will come out in 2023.
@@gtaspeakerrentals7597 Thanks ! 😊
Hello am using Bluetooth from a a mobile device but the output xlr to the subwoofer is not working any advise thanks for any help
Unfortunately, it won’t work with Bluetooth. The output only sends channel 1 and 2. So you’d need an aux cord.
Alto sells their own xlr bt-reciever, that you could use in xlr-input and pair w the other side. Then cable should work out--> sub. 👍👍👍
Extremely stupid that it doesn't work as it should...
I own a ts312 and ordered a second one from an online store but recieved a ts412 instead... if using both in stereo with a mixer will this work or will this cause damage to one or both speakers?
It'll work without any damage. The TS412 is probably louder, so you'd just have to put that volume lower than the TS312 for a more balanced sound.
@@gtaspeakerrentals7597 appreciate it
The Background music is way too loud. (at least at the beginning of the video)
Thanks
I have the ts312 and the ts412 they are great speakers
I did hear that the ts312 HF tweeter tends to blow and have seen a few people change them with different HF tweeters, does anyone know what the best tweeter is to fit in the ts312
I only replaced it with a HG00640
How's the latency on ts4 series any delays while watching films on phone through Bluetooth?
I've never tried watching films on phone through bluetooth, but I imagine it would be minimal latency. Probably not noticeable. But again, I've never tried it. Do you notice the lag with other speakers?
@@gtaspeakerrentals7597 not with my jbl irx08
How do you see these speakers playing classical orchestral music?, I am not interested in club/rock music
It would be great. You can even EQ it with the app to your preference.
@@gtaspeakerrentals7597 thank you for your advice
THE WORST ADD ON TO A SOUND REINFORCEMENT SPEAKER, A MICROPHONE INPUT. THAT'S WORTLESS !!!
Ya. I guess they're trying to sell it as an "all-in-one PA speaker."
Soooo… how do they sound?
They both sound great and I use them often. I must say, I think the TS310 is more powerful. But the TS410 is so useful with the bluetooth.
How do these compare in audio quality? Also, which has the least amount of hiss at the same output?
Thanks for the question. These are virtually identical in audio quality. Besides the EQ, I don’t think they changed anything. The TS412 or 415 are louder and clearer than the 312 and 315. The hiss is the same in both models.
@@gtaspeakerrentals7597 thanks. So the TS310 and TS410 sound the same but the 312 and 315 don’t sound as clear and loud?
@@richardpenrose1968 that’s right. The 412 and 415 are actually advertised as 2500 Watts, opposed to the 312 and 315 as 2000 Watts.
@@gtaspeakerrentals7597 ah I thought the whole TS4 range had 2500w amp modules. I’m surprised the TS410 tonally sounds the same as the TS310 with the new driver and amp module? I was expecting to hear some improvement!?
where to buy from in Canada
so you can not play bluetooth music in two speakers?
You can if you have two TS4 speakers.
What if i have 4 ts410? How can i Bluetooth them all together?
@@Jus4kiks808 I believe you can only Bluetooth 2, then you would have to daisy chain the other 2 with XLR cables.

Question please. I have ts415 model . I had accident and the box is broken but I have a previous model wich is ts315, can I put the speaker from my ts415 model on my other ts315. Also will it sound better
Yes
Yes, you can put the speaker in the ts315 box. I’m not sure if you can put the amp plate it, it might be a different size with different screws. So if you just put the speaker in the 315, you’re basically just upgrading the 315. The Bluetooth and dsp would be gone, of course.
