[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 98356, member: 30"] Re: Small Line Array cabinet physics? And when you add in the fact that the HFs are going to have a lot more separation (due to the thickness of the top and bottom of the cabinet and any spacing in between) than a fewer number of larger boxes-resulting in less clarity (specifically in the HF), then the advantage is ---------------- Oh it doesn't get as loud and doesn't sound as good-but "that's OK" It's smaller and costs the same. Unless of course you want to just ignore the FUNDAMENTAL physics of a line array and just use a couple of boxes-----------------------------. I bet a huge majority of the "users/specers" of line arrays have no idea that the total length is what determines how much "line array behavior" there is at a particular freq. They probably think it stays the same-NOT! But why bother to actually understand and think-when you can just recite some add copy and make believe it is fact-------------------- As long as you sound convincing enough-then it MUST be true.
