Thanks to the thread "loudspeakers in rooms, not flat", some smart people here gave a good overview of what (really) happens in the listening area.My thoughts - then a few questions:
- The plus-minus thing should be stated "window". If it's +/-5db, it means a 10db window.
- I wonder how a cone speaker compares to a panel. Are Magnepans flatter in the listening area ?
- How a horn would compare to cones and panels. Even a "waveguide" like Tannoy or a (passive) Emerald Physics.
- What measurable improvement does a DSP Xover (like Holm and DEQX) make ? I understand that these are tough to dial in - but do we have the data ?
