just curious ...

...does wing elevation help? Parts of me think that blocking the soundwaves near the floor is what helps. OTOH, given a 50" wing, would elevation above the XO to the driver region help by manipulating the non-reflected dipolar pattern.

IIRC, the 90° (rearward) wing doubles as making stands more rigid like support/damper for a flying-buttress. The 0° (sideways baffle-extension) wing works best with internal tweeters to block reflected waves with the assistance of a nearby sidewall (to help complete the blockade). Otherwise, I hear that 45° wings rock.


... just my 2¢
