Just a note that although it is a bit rough, you can easily run simulated measurements of FR and dispersion on the Paraline range using either Direct or the provided CLF data. The pattern control definitely works lower than 3KHz so I'm not sure your model is correct. |

One thing that i should maybe stipulate here is that when i say ''does not work'', is that it does provide pattern control, but it just does not provide a flat wavefront at these frequencies. Since however the frequency drops and wavelengths get larger, deviations from perfectly flat are less relevant since sources will automatically couple better and interfere less due to the proximity of individual sources.
This will not show up in standard CLF data. Also, i am always looking at nearfield information running the comsol simulations. In the farfield much of the chaos dies out as it is unphysical radiation i.e. evanescent waves. Physics tends to smooth out many of the irregularities. In CLF data this will also not show in directivity files but more in frequency dependent losses, that can be compensated with eq. The major difference between the paraline and the current design is that the current design provides a flat wavefront with less irregularities to a lower frequency than the paraline. I dont mean to discredit the paraline, i am merely stating my observations. Edited by Teunos - 27 June 2016 at 7:55pm |

No of course that's fair enough - your design goals are a little different than the Paraline anyway as that was specifically meant for a column style box. You may want to take a close up look at the integrator in the J1, J2 and J3 to see how they tackle it there - it isn't shown on drawings for obvious reasons

This was a great project to see some pics of!
I've been registered for a while (october 2012) but this is my first post. I would love to keep in contact with you but can't send you a PM. If you read this, please send me an email: jan (at) deleest.be groeten!

I don't come here very often anymore but I was loving this project. A great mix of advanced modelling and modern manufacturing processes. Please keep it going, or at least tell us where we can keep up to date! This forum is full of people asking the same tired questions, and modelling and building in the same way people have done for 20+ years. It needs people like you to show that there's a whole world of technology to advance DIY speaker building

I sure hope Teunos accidentaly created the next step in linearrays design and gets to make a shitload of money out of it. His dedication to the cause of good sound is amazing.

I too hope the thread posts were deleted because good is coming his way, great effort and gave my self plenty of food for thought, and a different look at this subject...
