[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 141412, member: 30"] Re: Infocomm??? The problem when you "think" you are using highly directional sources is that in almost every case you are NOT. A highly directional source (meaning narrow pattern) only exhibits that behavior in the top octave or two, unless they are VERY LARGE. As the pattern narrows, it HAS to get LARGER to have the same control to a specific freq as a wider pattern. So what you end up with is a lot of "pattern flip" and the resulting interference, which manifests itself in lobes and such-which are easily heard. THe SBH products are designed as stand alone (ie you do not stack them to get more control or output) products that produce the pattern because each of the drivers is part of the total pattern. Each driver/lens has a different pattern (as shown in the video). The end results are FAR from being the same as simply stacking up boxes of any type [/QUOTE]
