[QUOTE="TJ Cornish, post: 71956, member: 162"] Re: Trap Boxes? At the extreme low end that you're talking about, it does seem a little silly, especially if they're stacked as I often see them - firing at my belly button rather than over people's heads. That being said, I would argue that a big piled up trap system is just as silly, and just as likely to be set up too low. A nice pair of SOS boxes would be great, but lack the visual panache some people want. As someone shopping for a small line array, I will comment that while Ivan's Genesis and Jericho horns can outrun many line array systems, they're totally impractical for someone like me who needs a flexible, lightweight, flyable, adjustable coverage system for portable use. For that matter, any trap box with sufficient output to do what I want to do - SRX725, KF650, SH64, or whatever is too cumbersome for setup by one person. My current constant curve system has 50lb elements that I can lift myself and is both pole mountable and flyable. The system I'm looking at has 36lb elements, more output, variable coverage, and still pole mountable when I need it to be, but scales to do bigger events than I'll ever be able to handle by myself.
