Flat anechoically or in room?

Look at the review of the JBL horn/hybrid speaker up now on the stereophile website. The nearfield measurements are not super but the in-room response above 200Hz, to quote John Atkinson "Good Grief!" Super flat all the way out to 20Khz (arguably too flat in the highs for an in-room response).

Obviously, that speaker has been designed to deliver the goods in a real room.

I find the in-room response to be much more telling about how a speaker is perceived than any near-field measurements.
