Hi and thanks a lot for the very helpful reply
Yes you are right ... it is a not completely "transparent" to give test results
And i think that all the test freqs were in the woofer range
that could be a driver of the wideband type maybe even without crossover
But in general i like the idea of an accurate speaker
Then there is the problem to define what "accurate" means
With a rifle everything is much easier ... but with a speaker ?
The very trivial definition is a speaker that does not distort "too much" the test signal
If this happens only very close to the speaker and for very low level ... let's stay in the near field !
Seriously i am sure that there are some speakers that are quite accurate also at a good distance and at high SPLs
But i do not know which they are.
Thanks again.
Kind regards,
