Recently Rick Craig made a comment somewhere that his building of line arrays has switch from using 5.5 - 7.7 mid woofers to using 3-4 inch speakers. His most recent double line has HV 3 inchers in it. This is the model that I used from the beginning, though probably for other reasons than Rick Craig.
We all know that with sensitivity and dynamics as the only issues, line arrays beat the pants off even the best point source speakers.
But what about tonality? Does the use of smaller 3 inch wide ranges along with a stereo woofer system impact the tonality part? or what does the use of the smaller wide range units bring to the table that the 5.5-7 inch models not?
