"Line Array" has also become a big deal in pro-sound/sound renforcement... many new manufacturers, and old ones like JBL have line array setups. Throws a consistant wavefront to all sections of seating, up front or far back.

Anthony Gallo will soon offer his Reference 5 line array. |
Dazzdax, Sorry not sure where you are coming from, but like anything else they are HUGE, and need the space along with the tolerance to use them...So Many just design speakers for more real world applications to try and appeal to the universal use in home. Of course their are many far better than wilson, Many line arrays are killer sound, but many are complicated, costly, and just HUGE! So thats why they are not the best trendy speaker. Not to mention the shipping costs and resale used due to this. Beyond that I am sure they can speak for themselves on many technical points, but if you don't think a system with 40 drivers or something in it can compare to a standard 2 way or 3 way 6 driver system not sure why you would believe that? On another point that new GR research line looks excellent, and I bet for that price point not much could compare. I built a pair of cheap line arrays years ago.. Hate to say it I gave them away due to the size, the guy still has them and loves them, I went down and took a listen to my old creations a few weeks ago and WOW they still do it so well and he owns about 20 amplifiers that he switches around on them, plus they put out great bass and are efficient. |
