Re: What are good choices for mains that stand alone well and array nicely?Unless you really need ~160-180 degree horizontal coverage, there aren't any trap boxes that will array nicely 3 wide, yet also work well individually (assuming that you need minimum 60 degrees horizontal coverage). Vertical arrays are a different story, but I'm not convinced that a single array element will work all that well for smaller gigs. A 60x40 box with a rotatable horn might be a good option, though.In a perfect world, you'd use arrays to gain a broader coverage area. The additional output comes from using higher output, tighter pattern speakers.
