[0024] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains. The terms used in the specification herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1-4 The line array speaker provided by the utility model has a main expansion unit and a side supplement unit arranged in the shell 1 (i.e., an integrated structure is adopted). Compared with the traditional technology in which the main expansion speaker and the side supplement speaker need to be arranged separately, the structure is simpler, the installation is more convenient, and the cost is lower.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 2 In a preferred embodiment, the side supplement unit also includes a second midrange module, one end of the second midrange module is connected to the first midrange module 22, and the other end is tilted outward relative to the first midrange module 22.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 2 In a preferred embodiment, the second midrange module includes a first midrange unit 24 and a second midrange unit 25. One end of the first midrange unit 24 is connected to the first midrange module 22, and the other end is connected to the second midrange unit 25. The first midrange unit 24 is tilted outward relative to the first midrange module 22, and the second midrange unit 25 is tilted outward relative to the first midrange unit 24.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 2 In a further preferred embodiment, the side compensation unit includes a second midrange module and a second tweeter module 23 and an adjustment mechanism that are interconnected. The adjustment mechanism is also connected to the housing 1, and the adjustment mechanism can control the second tweeter module 23 to be close to or away from the second midrange module.

[0030] In the above three embodiments, the second midrange module is at least one midrange unit. The second midrange module is tilted upward relative to the first midrange module 22 to achieve the connection and coordination between the midrange and the treble. The tilt angle of the second midrange module is 10-90°, preferably 30-60° or 30° or 60°.
