Re: What are good choices for mains that stand alone well and array nicely?The EV Xarray stuff is quality kit, but you're right in the assumption that one xb will not be enough. The xb is more considered a low box to be used with the xf's mid-hi drivers. All of that would then be used with x-subs.One thing that I've seen done is to use 3 wide SRX tops (725's in this case, that's all I see around here) and stack them where 2 tops cover the majority of the space and then flip the inside one upside-down to cover right in front of the stage. If you power that inside box separately and turn it down a bunch it won't mess with the other 2 boxes too much.This of course assumes that you'll be getting these boxes way up in the air. A triple stack of 728's would do it. That would leave you with a 2 over 3 per side with a matching front fill. You could do a good sized show with that IF powered properly. I bet 1500-2000 waterbags would enjoy that rig.
