Horizontal splays
Splaying WLX/WLXGS arrays horizontally will widen their mid-bass coverage.
The following sketch shows an 8 wide x 3 high WLX/WLXGS array arranged in four symmetrical pairs for
smooth mid-bass coverage.

Note that lower frequencies remain focussed when large arrays are used with large radii. Smaller systems
with small radii will widen coverage at all frequencies but may cause cause low frequency build-up on thrust
and island stages. Avoid this problem by augmenting small stage corner systems with WLXs placed along
the stage apron.
For a smooth polar crossover:
Array the WLXs to match the curvature of the main clusters' low-mid or mid-bass section
whenever possible but avoid making the front horizontal gaps greater than 200mm.
Avoid large gaps between the main system and the WLXs whenever possible.
