Ahh, never mind, I forgot this is a series Bessel 🙁 no HP for a single driver lol...

Started the cabinet…

Coming along, ill try and get the drivers in tomorrow.

Where do you guys find this stuff? “Forward lobes of opposing phase need to be quadratic” …

I think a concave shape might be better with the lobes, but op is concerned with delay?

A Bessel array….its a very different thing.

All done, will try it out later next week.

All done, by the amount of decor you can see why I wasn’t super worried about the finish, but it still looks great!

Sound is good. When you pass it up close, within a few feet you can hear the phase nulls, but at about 8’ and further they seem to sum decently and vocals are very clear.

The inwalls that will accompany the center channel. I went ahead and upgraded the crossovers a bit.

Thread 'Line array help or suggestions'

I am building a center channel channel for our living room Home Theater. I had several drivers already I decided to use, 10 3” FR drivers and a Morel 1” dome. I decided to add the 1” dome above 10k as it has pretty smooth off axis response and the FRs get a little ragged that high.

I plan on wiring each set of 5 in a Bessel alignment to keep horizontal beaming to a minimum.

My question is horizontal spacing. I have no limit up to 60”, but I was wondering if anyone had an ideal of optimum spacing with them being in a Bessel, I really don’t know where the acoustic centers will be and how...
