Re: Multiple Subwoofers
Multiple subs are the only way to go in my opinion. It's done more to smooth out room modes than to increase SPL. The idea is to place them around the room in different places so self-interference that is destructive from one sub is filled in by anothe...

Re: 3Pi Satellite idea
I understand your desire to make the cabinets smaller. That's a worthy goal. And I think what you've described is probably pretty safe. However, I want to mention that you're not looking for crossover between subs and mains when used indoors, at least...

Going without a subwoofer.... even with smaller drivers?
Anyone have experiences to share regarding bass coupling between multiple woofers and how an array of woofers performed in bass output that was or "sims" to be very different than one or two of said woofers in a more conventional design? I am ...

Re: Just Loaded in 4 Pis
The reason we made the middle speaker sealed for the university studio was that, as a center channel, purely for aesthetics, it simply looked better to have the tweeter centered. I think sometimes psychoacoustics are as important to listening impression...

Re: What about Oval shaped drivers (like 4"x6") for arrays?
I was just hoping to get some info on the oval drivers for line arrays that's all. I was told the members here know a lot about setting them up. I'm not really sure if you were poking fun at the setup I have or not. I figured your statement woul...

Line array benefits
The major benefits are as follows: 1. Frequency response dips and bumps tend to smooth out. And because there are some many of the speakers, each speaker may have limited output in the upper treble or the lower bass, but all speakers put out something ...

Re: Boundary conditions and floor bounce
Thanks Wayne,Great information as always, easy to understand.You said:"Floor bounce is entirely dependent on height. It causes a notch somewhere, usually in the lower midrange, when speakers are placed on stands. That makes a trade-off of competing priori...

Re: How 'bout a four π speaker?
I rest mine on small angled risers, which lift the front of the speakers about three inches and the rear only about one inch. This has an effect of angling the forward axis up slightly. In this position, the tweeter is at ear level when seated.Another o...

Re: How many subs are enough?
Outdoors, I would prefer the subs packed close together, ideally within 1/4λ from each other and from the mains. The idea is to create a single sound source so there is no cancellation interference between sound sources. In this case, a single sub would...

How about multiple smaller subs?
I would opt for more subs, not larger. That will allow you to smooth room modes. My suggestion would be to use four smaller subs and position them where CARA shows will give you the smoothest bass throughout the room. An example would be four LAB12 woo...
