line arrays for small room

[ackcheng]

I am interested in DIYing a line arrays speaker but I only have a small room of the size 12ft x 24 ft x 10ft.

Would the room be too small for line arrays?

I have for the past 5 years used a Bottlehead Straight 8 knockoff in the Living room which is 15x12x9 feet and it sounds very good indeed. I used a Peerless KO10DT tweeter instead of the recomended tweeter. The woofer MCM 55-1870 is still availible and faily cheep. The tweeter I used is no longer in production, however any good quality soft dome with a an low fs will probably sound fine. I used a subwoofer with them to get the bottom octave, but this is a matter of taste. There are plenty of good line arrays out there now which are probably better.
