Looking to build a pair of line source/column speakers for mids-top from 250hz up. I like the width and throw of the line source design, as well as its portability. It's for a little PA with 12" Cubo kicks on each side, and a x2 12" centre cardioid sub. (it's for that sort of music with lots of head/brain Bass, rather than body bass), to be used outside in the summer and low-ceiling basements in the winter, for like 200 people.
Thinking of a column with a minimum of x8 drivers close together to minimise comb filtering using either 3" or 4" drivers.
What do people think of using a 2-way driver like a JBL stage2 4". Then I dont have to have a separate tweeter in the middle (if i did i'd go for a planar) ... unless i build a curved design, due to top end due to cancellation. If the 2-way idea is bad, I'd go for a FaitalPro 3" FE22 or Peerless TC9FD00-04
Any plans anyone? Or tips from experience? I'm fairly new to speaker building.
Hoping to find some tested plans or experience here or someone to persuade me to build something else and not buy a pair of proBox Achat 804. advice, please.

Dont know what you should do but the price for the faital, looks like a great deal. They even sell a 16 ohm version. Will work better in and array.
