ABSTRACT:
A line array loudspeaker system including a large number of small, regularly and closely spaced acoustical drivers. Each of the acoustical drivers receives essentially the same audio signal. In another embodiment, a line array includes a plurality of portable line array modules that are constructed and arranged to be attached end to end to form a longer line array.
