Important considerations with delay towers
|
Many are better than one
Dont crank them-make transparent Maintain same axis as mains Use stereo at own risk |

Difference between directivity factor and directivity index?
|
Directivity factor - Q describes beamwidth
Directivity Index - SPL increase on axis compared to whole space |
