Borresen X3 measurements

You will always have people that say they hate a certain well beloved speaker, regardless of measurement.

Ls50 and 50 meta, lots of lovers, lots of haters. 

Some of the Spatial open baffle speakers, lots of lovers, lots of haters. 

The same for lots of Focal and B&W models.

If bad measurements justify your dislike of a certain speaker, I assume good measurements would automatically make you love those?

Can we measure everything that counts, or does it count what we measure?. To my ears they sound great, I don´t care what the measurements say.

Some say a straight line (frequency) is the perfect way to do it. To my ears it sounds horrible. Who says the straight line is the right one?

I´d just trust my ears. I heard them, I liked them. No big deal. 😀

I use measurements as a guide when shopping for equipment including speakers because I tend to like a balanced sound that’s easy to EQ.  I had an old set of powered 4-way towers that didn’t measure well but I loved the booming lower end.  I moved on to more balanced speakers when the amps went.  To me it’s all about what sounds and looks good to you in your listening room and fits your budget.  

My whole system is on ASR's shat list and it sounds great... I wouldn't worry about it too much.   Measurements and how something sounds in a real world setting don't always align.  Many variables, especially the room they end up in
