Although this is not commonly used, I have seen this done on some occasions and at least one manufacturer has a specifric product to address this. See: www.meyersound.com and go to the DS-4P EAW also makes such a device as part of the KF series (if I recall correctly). Historically there have been such products, such as the Martin 2x15 "butterfly" bass horn. I guess one could argue that prior to us all deploying "real" subs (that extend the frequency response down below 50-60Hz) that most bass horns and/or "subs" we have used covered the range you describe. Whether or not you really need this depends on the acoustics, the musical style and the whims of you and the others who mix. |

How would it grab you to have another type of box in addition to the full-range boxes and the LAB Horns, with the same form factor as the rectangular full-range boxes being used (and thus being able to be arrayed together with a consistent appearance) yet designed specifically to deliver bass in the range from 150 to 60 Hz with greater impact and "punch"? |

Ok, here's the scenario: A big, traditional array of boxes, like Yorkville TX, or EAW KF850, with ground-stacked sub horns like LAB horns. |
