@kenjit re:
They have horrible measurements look at all those peaks and dips. you couldn’t get any more ragged.
And yet in that same article the reviewer states...
Summing up, the in-room response was wide and remarkably uniform in balance, a testament to the Duo’s good off-axis energy response.
and
Handsomely delivering the promised high linearity, the midrange horn distortion was astonishingly low, even at a measured 110dB test level. Even at 100 and 90dB SPLs, the third harmonic was unmeasurable, and the second was well below 0.1%—this rivals a good push-pull electrostatic speaker and even some amplifiers!
and
What a surprise to find a horn speaker with such a wide and well-controlled directivity.
Seems like the reviewer liked these speakers - a lot
AND the first comment to the article speaks volumes...
On the other hand, the rendering of Ella Fitzgerald’s voice was simply extraordinary in its realism and palpability. So much so, that I forgot to even listen for audiophile things like imaging, soundstage depth and so on.
I go by what my ears tell me - NOT by what a bunch of graphs that detail things most people cannot even discern
Add to that the amplification used and cables that are in the mix and things can change drastically
When I heard these, they made my ears perk up and I listened intently - that is something many other brands fail to do.
But then its all about personal preferences anyway 🙂
No two people hear the same thing !
