Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Re: measurements

The 80 dB measurement does not match our data.

JA did offer a couple of ideas as to why, and we're inclined to agree that the outside temperature may well have been a factor. (John does all of Stereophile's speaker measurements in the great big anechoic chamber known as the great outdoors!) With external temperatures in excess of 100 degrees the metal cones cannot dissipate the heat effectively and some thermal compression may have resulted.
