What defining characteristic of "actual beam forming" applies to the Perlisten speakers, but not the expanding arrays? Feel free to get as technical as you'd like.
let me get permission from Perlisten before I share more. I don’t know for sure how much.
but I’ve already shared the main issue. That beam forming requires that all the speakers overlap substantially in output over a wide bandwidth to control directivity. Expanding arrays have hard crossovers between the drivers. The central tweeter in the 3 driver array has the exact same highpass as the two “midrange” drivers above and below it. They operate over much of their bandwidth together.
as soon as Dan gives me permission to share more details I am happy to do so.
