[QUOTE="Brandon G Romanowski, post: 107277, member: 57"] Re: Line arrays and inter-element angles. "In the far field, arbitrarily far away from even a large array, assuming it is in free space, you end up with point source behavior for any box/array." Right... but since our audience is specifically a distance away we manipulate the array to create some wideband even SPL and not necessarily consistent tone. If you were 300' from an array you would expect the HF to fall off... and if you were 3' from a subwoofer you would expect to hear a great deal of low end, but in both locations there should be some broad frequency range that is fairly flat and consistent in terms of SPL. Array calculators not withstanding, nobody wants to hear erratic frequency responses but I do not think that it is a simple case of choosing even tone over even SPL. [/QUOTE]
