RE: JA's review, this is a 50K speaker ......
Posted by Dave_K on December 19, 2016 at 07:41:23:
The near field pseudo-anechoic measurements are pretty awful. The woofer frequency responses in Figure 2 look pretty bad, and that tweeter really should have a HPF on it. But I think it's a futile exercise trying to coherently sum the near field responses of a couple of horns and a couple of dynamic drivers, so I don't think Figure 3 says much at all. Same for Figure 7, because the relative arrival times are very different in the near field vs. the far field.
With a loudspeaker like this, I'm more interested in how everything comes together (or not) in the far field. And from approximately 60 Hz to 8 KHz, the in-room measurements look better than many others in Art's room.
