Hi, Just wondered what dispersion horns I would need for a pair of X12's that in some venues I'd use upright & some venues where theres not enough headroom I'd lay on there sides??
Am I right in thinking that a 90x90 or 100x100 would be ok or would that be to much coverage??

a lot of manufacturers use a square horn which can be unbolted and rotated for use on their sides. the void impulse and viper systems are examples of this

Anything you'd recommend? Rog designed the cab with a horn with a 45x45 dispersion, if I can't get or afford the Selenium what should I be looking for? The same dispersion & throat size??

I use a 60x40 dispersion horn on my X12-alikes and always thought I'd have dispersion problems but if you choose the location and angle of them well, I find the coverage is enough for almost all venues I work in.

Is that upright or on there side? Are they wired with an internal x over or with two inputs for the different frequencys?
Got the ply priced today @ £40 a sheet for bb grade but theres no wall saws up here so a joinery company will rip it down into more managable bits for me to work with! What sort of price do you pay a sheet??
