Someone forgot to bring front fills?

Or any cable dressing supplies?

I think the weird looking bits are a shadow.

How about the sideways tilt to the hang?

The general ugliness of the whole thing makes me wonder about the stuff we can't see.

It's not sideways tilt.  That's a shadow from the hang creating the optical illusion of sideways tilt.

Wow that looks messy, but fun  Very Happy

What speakers is it? The spacer bumper between the bottom 2 boxes looks like some thing from a manufacture, I have seen fare worse.

I have done the "same" a few times with opening the angles on the bottom box(s) more that the default max angle. And it can work really well if you don't have down fill boxes or if your very restricted in weight. However you all on your own as you can't predict the response and unless the manufacture makes a spacer bumper you can be in a world of shi... rigging wise, so don't!.

Ah Rasmus.....I think you will find that that is a milo system and the bottom boxes are supposed to have the spacers between them....the bottom boxes are actually different to the rest of the array......

doing this with a most standard line array elements would make great big holes in your vertical coverage!

The milo (120's?) are designed to have the gap on purpose I'm pretty sure, as they are the near field portion of the array ala dV-DOSC etc etc (insert favorite line array brand and model here)

Looks like MILO... and I believe Meyer does make a spacer for extreme angles between boxes.

Chris,

Oh well, Jon got fooled by a shadow, I got fooled by what "looks like" a pice of plywood between the speakers... guess that's why we do sound Smile

I know about the spacer bumpers from meyer, just wasn't sure it was a milo rig.

mvh
