horn tweeter line array
A horn tweeter line array represents a sophisticated audio reproduction system that combines multiple horn-loaded tweeters arranged in a vertical configuration. This arrangement creates a controlled and coherent sound wave propagation pattern, delivering exceptional high-frequency performance across large spaces. The system typically consists of precisely aligned horn tweeters, each engineered to work in perfect harmony with adjacent drivers. The geometric arrangement follows careful calculations to minimize interference patterns while maximizing vertical coverage. These arrays utilize wave-guide principles to control sound dispersion, typically achieving 120-degree horizontal coverage while maintaining tight vertical pattern control. The design incorporates phase alignment techniques to ensure that all drivers work together coherently, producing a seamless soundfield. Modern horn tweeter line arrays often feature advanced materials like titanium or aluminum diaphragms, offering superior transient response and minimal distortion. The system's efficiency is remarkably high, typically achieving 106-110 dB sensitivity, which allows for excellent performance with relatively modest amplifier power. This configuration proves particularly valuable in applications requiring precise coverage control and high intelligibility, such as houses of worship, auditoriums, and large venue sound reinforcement systems.
