"Rubbish, BS and similar terms is not what I would call factual! Such terms are not convincing arguments either!"
Oh but Klaus I go on to explain quite clearly why they are rubbish, BS and so on.
"If we compared like with like we'd take the O900 subwoofer with its two 12" drivers (which is still smaller than the Wilson). However, no distortion data except from -46 dB THD at 30 Hz, 101 dB/1m"
Yes so 5db lower in level and about the same distortion but a full octave higher. Not so convincing Klaus.
Now let me ask you, how much does a system composed of the 0500C and the 0900 cost?? Are we getting close yet to the price of the Wilson? I bet we are. Are the cabinets anywhere nearly as well constructed as the Wilsons (which aren't even wood at all but high density resin/rock that cost probably 10 times as much as MDF)? Not likely.
"Yes, in Colloms' room, best placement"
Well what else would you knowingly use?? Honestly.
"And in Franassovici's room, the response is ± 3 dB"
Also very good in-room response with no DSP involved.
All this banter is nice, Klaus but my point was to debunk your comment about high end speakers not being accurate. Consider it debunked. Geddes Summa also measures quite well FWIW.
