line array + transmission line ?

If the Fs is that high the line won't be very long... especially if you do a severe taper or an ML-TL(say 20" just to have something to work with) ... just load a TL behind each driver (or pair) and send the line straight out the back or ivv you could fold it....

Hi,

Example of short TL-line-arrays. For 5.1 lateral use with surround channels.

Thanks, .. I'll post back in a week or less, when I have the drivers in hand.

bjorno, .. that idea is neat but would need more space than I can afford for this application.
Dave, .. likewise, I was considering having the line run along the length of the speaker, rather than across.

Hopefully, I can hack out something this weekend, if I get the drivers before then. Hopefully, they'll work out fine.

Watch this space, and keep the suggestions coming. I haven't bought any tweeters for the high frequency array yet, but have several toys to work with in the meantime (piezos, linaeum dipoles, eminence compression drivers, RS supertweeters)
