Hi,Thanks for your suggestions.
Speaking to #1, +/-15 degrees vertically is actually incorporated into the Listening Window already. We could plot those separately (the + and - 15), but in my opinion, to get a really accurate picture of sound power, you have to do sound power. In the chamber, it's incredibly time consuming, but one thing I mentioned earlier is we're looking at new test equipment, and with that one of the things we'll be able to do is true sound power. Stay tuned.
I hear you about wanting to see below, say, 45dB. The issue there is you're already more than 40dB down from the main signal with what we publish, so less than 1% distortion. Lower than that, you start getting into the noise threshold of the room, which is already MUCH lower than anyone can achieve with typical gated techniques in a regular room, or outside, which is what other magazines usually resort to. Therefore, I'm not sure what going lower might tell us.
The IMD is a good point.
