Thanks for the reply. I have never built a line array but I have built several DIY speakers.

I just bought 20 of the VIFA TC18WG-15-08 7" INFINITY WOOFER at PE for $9.00. It was a deal I couldn't pass up. I plan to use 9 a-side and keep 2 as spares...just in case.

My thoughts on tweeters are:

1. go with the pt-2 planar. I have not heard them and would like to know other's opinions. I have some reservations about using a "budget" planar as I was not happy with the sound of the BG NEO-3 and the Freq. Respon. seems to roll off above 5K (depends on the graph you go by). I am not sure if I will be able to buy enough to equal the height of the line exactly but may come close.

2. buy as many North creek D25-06S ($36 per pair)as my budget will allow. I have heard them and like them, for the price. But in light of your reply this does not seem like a good way to go as I will not be able to afford enough to equal the height of the mid/bass array

3. Use the Stryke audio SA-TW1 . they have it for $7.00 and it doesn't look bad, from what little info there is on it. Any one heard it?

What are your thoughts on combing effects if I try to go the dome route and try to stretch them out to fit the height of the array?
