I am working on a line source project and I am trying to use the B&G Neo3 transducer. And my understanding is that a minimum coverage of 70% vertically "floor to ceiling", is needed to fully realize the effects. The Neo3 which is nearly 3" tall only has a vertical radiating window of 1.9" so even overlapping a bit I am only at 58%. I found a bunch of the Neo1 tweeters that were used primarily in their "in-ceiling" speaker designs. The fellow I purchased them from had no specs. "I got them really cheap!" I am thinking they should be close to what a Neo3 would operate but radiating only 1.25 inches vertically. I do not have quite enough to make two lines 7' tall of them, I only have 60,

so was thinking. Could I possibly try a configuration like in the pic? What would the downside be? This configuration would get me to nearly 100% without overlap and these are known for their non-vertical dispersion.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

Hmm, close together you say? Like? Apartments? And why do they call them apartments when they are soo close together?
Other than maybe a phase issue. Would this cause any problems?
