These were drawn for the DR280 but can easily be scaled for all melded array's. The idea is based on a drawing posted by David Carter. EDIT: The "from filter" should read "From Piezo Resistor"

What's the advantage of having them all or half, just wondering

Thanks,

It changes vertical dispersion and sensitivity slightly. Generally it is only used when the cabinet is used for Bass Guitar and PA double duty. Half or off for bass, all on for PA.

That's why I did my Omni 10 that way. But when I got around to building my DR250's, I went with the simple on/off switch because I found that I liked using no tweeters for bass.
