Came across this site whilst looking for information on how I might go about building a DIY Line-Array speaker system. We host yearly parties on our property, and our friends are all into Bass EDM music. So a couple times a year we have DJs out and throw a big party. The speakers that I have now work very well, and fill our space very well with sound, but I'm not super happy about the quality of the mids and highs. I'm into woodworking, software development, electronics, music! So, outside of the math and physics involved with speaker design, I can do most of the other stuff.
My current setup is:
(2) Rockville PBG18 Subwoofers each with QSC PLX3002 Amp
(2) Rockville 12.4 12" 3-way speakers each with QSC PXL1602 Amp.
The PBG18's work quite well for the low end, but the 12.4's leave a bit to be desired. They sound a little tinny and not very full.
I was looking to build (2) to start, and add more later, some line array style speakers that I could hang from my patio roof and aim down towards the audience (budget of about $3000 for a pair). Just from my initial browsing (I fully admit I don't know much about matching speakers (*yet)), I put this together for each speaker:
(2) Faital 10FH500 in parallel
(2) Faital 6PR110 in parallel
(2) Faital HF107 in parallel
Looking for any and all input regarding types of speakers, cabinet design, tuning ports, crossovers, etc.
Thanks!
