Yeah, I would agree it is strange. I was thinking maybe age (either mylar or components), but others don't seem to have similar issues and I would expect each speaker to show up differently.
Measurement setup:: ECM8000 spaced equidistant from both speakers, facing upwards and using an usb preamp. It was placed in a stand at my seating position, no adjustment between tests.
I could try to measure closer to each speaker to try to take the room out of the equation. Just seems funny if this room does the same to the bottom end for these units as my old house.
As for the equipment, I'm sure it works and reports lower signals. I've checked with my other speakers (two pairs of NFR, an 8-1-30 and a 645, plus my sub) and they all show proper output at my seating position. I just still greatly prefer the total sound from the mg3.5s, even with the issues.
