Post Subject: Here is what I am looking for..Posted by Romy the Cat on: 7/14/2021
I keep thinking about my new idea of more than 2 channels and room acoustic reinforcement but in natural and organic way, without using DSP.  I have invited my friend who did it from last week to collaborate the idea and to bound some of my concepts against his multichannel experience. He went fully DSP with surprisingly good new processor, but I still would like to not use DSP but acoustic mixing and delays.
 
So, the idea if to have a center channel that would do cross phase injection from right to left (in the way how Lamm L1 did). Also, to have back and top channels drive by delays not by DSP extraction.
 
So, here is what I need, and I started to investigate it. Feel free to pitch me ideas if you know what I am looking:
 
A center channel. Approximately 4-6 feet long and as thin in 2 other dimensions as possible, 3-4” preferably with two horizontal line arrays, the more drivers are better. In a way similar to Yamaha YSP-5600 in configuration but completely passive and with very good MF drivers. The good 3-4” MF drivers are hard to get and to see a sound bar bult out of them is not what I see available. The people who use sound bars care about bass and comfort and I am not. I do not need to go under 100Hz and all that I need is no compression, tone and a few other things. I might bult some like this, but it would take a LOT of experiments and I would rather to buy it.

A processor with 3-5 channels that would do AD, delays and DA. This will be for back and top channels, and it might be some kind of commercial receiver if I find the one that do not compress sound. I really would like this the has a microphone feedback and would allow me to celibate the time arrival but I can do it manually as well
