In Reply to: You impressions of single-driver speakers? posted by genungo on August 24, 2014 at 11:30:02:
There are good examples of each. Theoretically and practically a somewhat low crossover point to a woofer at 150-300Hz - depending on room size allows a small format driver (3-5") to cover up to the range of audibility without breakup modes (maintaining somewhat phase linearity. Also Planar electrostatic and some ribbons also have this characteristic. Take a full range 3 inch driver and combine in a line source and now you have even better dynamics and you can stretch the bottom end!
I'm currently building a system with 12 of these in a line source - crossed over to a sub for the bottom end. Prototype (mdf cabinet) listening was promising - though in a narrow tower a baffle step compensation needs to be applied. This customer will have them wall mounted on a curved baffle - with subs covering up to 180Hz or so.
