That is better than the sweeps on Madisound's page (spec). Looks like they worked out the kink with the resonance peak at 300 hz both the FR rise (5-6db less) and the accompanying impedance rise (from double to just a blip) are much smaller in these scans than the original manufacturer's spec.

The odd order distortion is low even at and below resonance. I don't think the 2nd order distortion is significant above 500 hz and even order is acceptable even below resonance.

The rolloff is oddly 18db rather than the 12 db I recall from the Neo8.

Looks much more promising than the spec sheet.

The 800+ hz dip between the 300hz resonance and normal output above 1khz is a worry since at 10db it is still much deeper than with the Neo8, unless it evens out with a line array like the cavity resonance at 12khz then it would need to be rather heavily EQ'd to use below 1khz. On the Neo8 singles the dip is much less pronounced at 4-5 db and irons out in the line array to within my measurement error and is no more than 2 db.
