Let me explain what a column line array speaker is. It is essentially an array of drivers closely arranged in a vertical row. My design is probably more of a mini-line array, since I only have 5 small 2 inch drivers in the array, but it is an array none the less.

The aim is to have something that will still have a reasonable footprint and can fit into the average lounge. The array column also has a rear firing tweeter mounted in the back. This allows us to fill in the typical high frequency drop of the array, but also gives us some ambient presence.

Of course five 2 inch drivers will not produce much bass under 200Hz, and thus the array is supported by a subwoofer as part of the overall design. In this case the subwoofer is a project I featured in a previous project video. The woofer is a 6.5 inch driver by Tang Band, and two 8 inch passive radiators.
