Here is what I was thinking. I know I'm over-explaining, but imagine you're amping a cathedral. If you hide the speakers in the top of the clerestory, you are just adding to the reverb. Until you drive them loud enough to be heard, all you hear is the whole church bouncing back. Now put the speakers...

I don't have a problem with vertical dispersion necessarily. I'm trying to remember, but I think they are 40-degree vertical and 90 horizontal and they're hung angled to point at where I usually have audience set up. I think the primary problem with the four 12s way up high is that I'm driving them ...

A quick and ugly section view of what it might look like in there with proscenium seating. The risers actually go to 5 levels, but I'm lazy. That seating is usually 32' wide, so a couple 4x6 would be perfect in this configuration. The other image shows what it might look like in-the-round, where I'm...

2x6s aren't what you want in a reverberant space, having twice the vertical dispersion as 4x6s. I agree. My concern is with the horizontal. Given the fact that my seating might be sections of 6 chairs wide (in the round) or 25 chairs wide (proscenium), I'm worried about putting all my eggs in one c...

I'd say SLA pro is a good choice. They have wider horizontal dispersion and narrower vertical dispersion than any twelve inch loaded cab, which should help fix your reverb problems. Dispersion is proportional to the size of the radiating plane, so a vertical line of four sixes will have in the vici...

Hi and welcome :) Is this what you're after? https://billfitzmaurice.info/forum/viewtopic.php?t=14052 As you can see, SLA pro is pretty good down to around 100Hz and will require subs below that. As a rigger, you should be informed that the designer categorically states that the cabs cannot be flow...

I did some poking around the main site and didn't find specs like freq response and waveform angles for the SLA pro. Hoping to get some info on them as a possible use for my live theater PA. There is a photo at the bottom that will give you an idea of the space and I'll add more drawings when I get ...
