[QUOTE="Bennett Prescott, post: 89968, member: 4"] Re: TVI Audio C210ii Line Array Brandon, I have never met a line array that had the same pattern at HF as at LF and I expect I never will. That means that hanging at 0 degrees is the worst possible decision, you have a laser beam at HF and an omni source at LF. Additionally you will create the most possible inter-source interaction, which results in ugly beaming. If you're going to use all the same angle it behooves you to determine what angle is required to get the most consistent pattern across the widest bandwidth. For example, here is a similarly sized line array at 0 degree splay, at 200, 800, and 3200 Hz: [ATTACH=CONFIG]152352.vB5-legacyid=6838[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]152353.vB5-legacyid=6839[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]152354.vB5-legacyid=6840[/ATTACH] And here is the same line array at 2 degree splay at the same frequency intervals: [ATTACH=CONFIG]152355.vB5-legacyid=6841[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]152356.vB5-legacyid=6842[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]152357.vB5-legacyid=6843[/ATTACH] That is a pretty marked increase in consistency with basically no increase in effort. I'm not saying 2° is the number to use, it's just the number I picked for this simulation. [/QUOTE]
