bazza540 Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 Hello, Please may I ask your comments on an article I found? I was searching the internet looking for information on line arrays and came across the following web page. http://www.burton-manor.co.uk/Audio/LAthoughts.htm There are a number of other pages on the site that outline designs for line array cabinets as well. I wondered whether other members here know anything about this site and if the information and designs are likely to be any good? Thanks in advance. John.
Simon Lewis Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 John, A quick read of their treatment of line array theory suggests that the information is generally true, although it does take a slightly jaded viewpoint at times... There is real science and complex mathematics behind the horn designs, and it's not all smoke and mirrors! I'll have a look at the designs later... Simon
StevieR Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 Interesting article. Good find! Obviously it doesn't cover everything but it gives a good insight into what the various manufacturers have been trying to achieve with their various inventions (and copies!). I particularly liked the diagrams of the interference patterns. These clearly illustrate the problems with multiple-speaker setups and demonstrate the effect of frequency on these. As they say a picture really does paint a thousand words... Steve
