T48 Setup

#1 Post by Keryn O'Shea »

Good morning,
I hope you guys are doing well,
would 6xT48s be able to be deployed in these configurations successfully outdoors when roadies or a forklift are unavailable for V-Plating?

I'm yet to learn how to use delay. Thanks Seth, for posting this info originally

Those patterns are with wide arrays with separated cabs. They don't apply with closely placed cabs, which act as a single source.

I've always wanted to do firsthand testing of all that stuff, but have never had that many subs at my disposal.

Ok, thank you Bill. What number of T48s would be considered a wide array when separated?

Don't separate them, it only causes problems.

Roger that.
However If l had to separate the cabs to cover a wide audience, is this setup per side asking for more trouble?

It would be convenient to have two platforms at different heights to stack the mains on, without needing scaffolding or ladders.
