The best recording engineers are still able to create a mix that travels well. It's a real art. -
If you're a speaker manufacturer, you have no control over what room or placement is used. So, it's a good idea to have good off-axis performance. Of... -
In a way, you can. Depend on them to cash in. -
Your measurements look pretty different than Paul's. Until we understand that, I'm not sure what to think. -
Off-axis issues often have a lot to do with the listening room and speaker placement. If the room is very reflective, and there are nearby walls, there's... -
Everyone knows, iron cores make your music sound ironic.Leave a comment:

OK. You guys are making me hungry. -
I really was serious that the bass distortion adds some perceived deep bass. Sure, it's not hi-fi exactly, but it works. -
Expecting great linearity from a 4" driver used as a woofer/midrange is a non-starter. The Doppler distortion at higher levels probably overshadows...Leave a comment:

Measurements are nice, but I wonder how much Klippel data means. I have to think these speakers fall into the "fun" category, not the "hi-fi...Leave a comment:

That's going to take a VERY powerful amplifier -
Go for it. In the near future they will only get more expensive. -
And I'll add, whatever the response from the box size, you'll end up re-shaping it in the crossover, so it's pretty non-critical.Leave a comment:

If you're talking a sealed box, they're pretty non-critical. A little larger won't hurt anything....Leave a comment:

Even then it's a labor of love. It's a great hobby, but I think designing your own is for those who want the challenge. If you just want great speakers...Leave a comment:

Looks like it's a real power dip, not just an off-axis excursion; so you could potentially fill it in with EQ.Leave a comment:

Seems likely. I wonder why you can't get decent ones.
