In Reply to: I'd call it a compound dipole -- advantages the same as all dipoles (reduced excitation of some room modes) posted by Richard BassNut Greene on October 31, 2006 at 09:21:31:
I see no compelling reason to use either. Free space analysis of the Quadrupole and my correspondence with SL reinforces this impression.
Perhaps Clayton Shaws data on in room performance may reveal something interesting. Perhaps not. We'll see.cheers,
