[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 146810, member: 30"] Re: WFX Nashville Live Sound Int. Speaker Demo And if people would actually read my posts, (instead of reading INTO them) they might see something different. Such as when I posted about the Intellivox. And BTW-those opinions existed (and I have posted about in the past) BEFORE Danley even existed. My other posts basically describe what is ACTUALLY happening. Not marketing hype. I am VERY OPEN for anybody to point out anything that I have said that is not technically correct. Opinions are one thing-different people like different things. But talking technical and how things work is a totally different thing (in my opinion) It is these basic concepts that are important for people to understand. So-again- if I have said anything technically wrong-please point it out. That is one area that I hate to be wrong in. I think that is important for people to. At least one manufacturer (Meyer) says on their website that with the CAl-once you start to "steer" the beam the SPL goes down. So my repeating this is not saying anything new-or bad-just the facts. But I know some people do not like "facts" and just like to "believe". Just look at politics-but we won't go there :) If these various products are actually STEERING (ie moving) the beam, then I would be curious as to how they are doing it. Loudspeakers simple radiate into space (like a pebble in a pond). You can act upon this radiation by several means-physical boundaries (like Danley does), or by introducing "other ripples-by other pebbles) whose waves will both add and subtract from the original pebbles waves (which is what the steerable products-and anytime you have multiple products covering the same area) But the waves of the original pebble are not as "pure", as if it was a single pebble. BUT it may be more important to keep the ripples going in one direction, than to be concerned with the "shape" of them. All the various products out there have a place and are intended for a particular usage. It all comes down to what is most important. Different usages have different (sometimes completely different) needs and therefore completely different approaches are needed for different "solutions". Going back to the Intellivox, It is far from the "nicest sounding speaker" in terms of audio fidelity. But that did not stop me from installing quite a few of them-and with EXCELLENT results. The rooms that they were used in, were typically acoustically "challenged" spaces, and the primary usage was spoken word. And they do that very well, and they "disappear" pretty well also into the architecture. Would I use them for a home stereo-no way. It is all a matter of choosing the proper tool for the job. One size does not fit all. But it is also important for people to understand the differences in the tools. To a hammer-everything looks like a nail. But you don't hammer a screw in (or at least you should not), but I see people do it all the time. Sure it goes in-and "kinda holds", but not as well as if you had used the proper screw driver.
