Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Re: Is there generally accepted convention re a single measuring point....

Generally, the measurement is done with respect to the bass driver or the midwoofer in case of 2 way designs such as the Signum. In short, it is measured from the front of the speakers. (btw the bass contribution of the Signum's port is rather minimal compared to that of the main driver) Say, for a rear wall distance of 1m - if you setup the Signums measuring from the rear of the speaker ... you'd most likely end up with too little bass.

Btw, what you perceive to be pinched or honky bass might be as a result of severely uneven bass - could be too much midbass and not enough upper bass.
