Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Re: Off-axis response

I should have been clearer. The lab tests I referenced were for the N802, and its off-axis response was very good as measured by both Audio and Hi-Fi News. Audio's lab tests were clearly the most exhaustive of any hi fi magazines. My personal experience is with the N802 and N804 (both of which I own along with a pair of CDM-7NTs). I have never seen a lab test faulting their off-axis response, and I have never experienced the off-axis tonal imbalance that you refer to in listening to the speakers I own. (I spent some time last night specifically trying it out by moving vertically and horizontally off-axis and found the overall tonal balance to remain remarkably constant. I also frequently listen to music while doing other things in the house in other rooms, and I have found the sound to be excellent).
