Phase response. With that many drivers in an array, isn’t phase response a mess?

• Using traditional drivers in a convex curve, one would generate a variety of points of origin, each creating phase issues with their neighbors. What happens in a MAD array?
• Because MAD drivers are planar, each driver creates, in essence, an infinite number of point sources with virtually no separation. Since the drivers are small and can be spaced so closely, they effectively operate as a single driver with a single point of origin. Thus, array phase response is remarkably predictable and linear.
