I once did some measurement at Guitar Center with OmniMic V2 Precision Measurement System.
In Yamaha HS series, the tweeter showed inverted polarity. In JBL 305, 308, the tweeter showed the same acoustic polarity as the woofer.
I listened to music through these speakers the day before that measurement. I had not felt that Yamaha HS series speakers were particularly bad in 'truth of timbre,' 'timing,' 'rhythm,' 'soundstage,' etc.
Well, HS5 and HS7 had somewhat less bass than HS8 or the JBLs, but I could not detect with my ears that the Yamahas' woofer and tweeter were not in the same acoustic polarity.
