Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Nay as well

the drivers are placed using a formula. It has to do with the frequency of the crossover point and it's actual sound wavelength size.

There is the phenomenon of reinforcement of sound when the crossover frequency wavelength equals the space between the drivers on the baffle, (center-to-center), and also the issue of negative reinforcement when they are half a wavelength apart on the baffle. There is also the matter of lobing when the drivers are more than a wavelength apart.

So by stacking you can not maintain those driver center to center distances. And will end up with lobbing or just crap.

Those speakers are designed quite well but not designed for that use. I never found any magic in array speakers. but I do find a good monitor/sub setup is hard to beat.
