How stable are the Line Arrays on carpet?
Very Stable actually. The spikes seem to be touching solid concrete. It will take a bit more force to push these one over at the same height compared to a normal floor stander.
I think it would work just fine. Perhaps theoretically not as "perfect" as 5 identical speakers. But I think fine enough.
ADTG, I have talked to Nathan before about surrounds, My idea was 5 more Funk Line arrays… Budget does not allow though.
You are more than welcome to fund my hobby though!
The imaging for them without the center is so good though that another center that maybe any less than the LA may “ruin” it.
Actually I was thinking more of the Funk 6.1P bookshelf x 3.
You are giving me ideas that I like, better in 1 enclosure though
. Trying to imagine that..hmm
Actually that would work very well.
Same drivers in a different configuration.
So same sonic footprint, or tonality.
I can't imagine something that would match any better actually.
Different configuration? I would like to know
I was sort of thinking 8.2P as an acceptable surround. I still like the idea of having 1 seat and a full set of Line Arrays.
Steve. When we turned up that one drum track I forgot to tell you we were hitting peaks of 130 db at the listening position, I'll let you tell everyone how far away that is from the speakers. And they do image amazingly well with a sense of depth to the soundstage better than anything I have ever heard, mine or not.
The distance from the Line Arrays to my head(listening position) is about 15’-2”. The Mic is at about the same location as well. Other family members thought the sound from the Line Arrays are very even throughout the room. The subwoofer is located about 10’ away.
The Pre/Pro goes up to a Max Volume of "100" and a Min of "0" At 60ish things were pretty loud and +/- a few is about the max we tried. If settings were around 70 I assume things would get fairly scary.
Also note: Nathan likes turning the volume up and shake things around a little bit.
