Thanks for the reply. When I think of Metallica, I envision plenty of content down at 30Hz. I've never hung an array of that size before, but I always thought that by time you hit half a wave length of what you can steer with a line source, you…

I've never hung an array of that size before, but I always thought that by time you hit half a wave length of what you can steer with a line source, you pretty much loose the benefits of a line source. It seems like you'd be smashing the performers all night long (maybe they like it). However you get it to work, I'm sure it's fantastic, I'd like to hear the TM in person sometime.

If you are hanging the subs in columns of 10 and each sub is 22.5 inches tall, that would make the hang roughly 19 feet tall correct? If so, you would only get the point-source effect necessary to achieve pattern control down to about 52Hz. Are you just using a highpass to filter out any frequencies below that, or are you using any other tricks?
