Bad Line Array Designs

I still see no scientific proof that it is a "bad" design. Unconventional, poor performance, whatever..... I just don't like unsubstantiated claims.
Have you read his document?

http://www.audiodiycentral.com/resource/pdf/nflawp.pdf

This document is based on research data below; You can read all

the research data going back 30 years or read the simple text.

Read post #28 again. Gallo claims 'line source' when it obviously is not, it's

impossible because he's using seperate drivers {many elements = line array}.

So....Gallo claims it's a line source, but it's not. If you claim that it's a line array instead,

that's ok, but it's the worse design if you wanted to mimic it.

Don't you think it's cool to look at commercial product and analyze it?

It's educational and makes you stronger. It might even motivate a person

to build their own and it will be superior without having to spend $20k.

Eh, I like to stay in the "don't knock it until you try it" camp on these types of things.
Don't use this methodology when seeking female hookers. Always verify 'The Design' before spending big dollars. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/peace.gif.2db28b618ed8d1964ebbe2f5021d2c39.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/hide.gif.2d479cfd917eedfe201353b91522ceab.gif

female hookers do not equal speakers....

 
Ah, it doesn't matter what any of you say. Bose is the most superior technology available to date - hands down.
