With my Bose rig, I have to constantly remember that it doesn't "work" like regular speakers - that so long as the speaker column covers the target area within it's 180 degree dispersion pattern, EVERYONE is gonna hear it at the same volume.

Seems it would, in part, defeat the purpose of the unit to have it turned around towards the band...
I'm running 6000 watts FOH. That's the difference.
