Sorry to come late to this one but for 2d I don't have RHETORS as agreed by others but TREMORS - small bursts and TDK Classic audio speakers?
This leaves me with just 1a to solve -T-T-E-.
Can't parse architect with either T or R as second letter?
Help?

I no longer have the crossword, but I recall that RHETORS was correct.

architect was wren i think.

2d is Rhetors: anagram of "shorter" (bursts is the anagram indicator)
