If you take a closer look at the frequency respons, there's a dip at 5khz, is this the infamous/much discussed weak midrange? Above 10KHz there's an increase, is that to accompish a clear top-end? Altogether not a completely flat frequency respons, or is it well within normal limits?

Sound Radiation from a Loudspeaker Cabinet using the Boundary Element Method

That's quite interesting! I didn't know that speaker cabinet behaviour was non-linear as the volume changed, but I suppose it makes sense!

Yup...got that.

And there was me thinking uni-direction oxygen free cables with gold plated-ends was the be-all-and-end-all of it.

Same as in the first article... is it really impossible to attach the connector legend sticker properly at the factory?

In that respect nothing has changed in 40+ years. I remember the legends on my very first B&O gear, being a Beomaster 3000, were also very improperly attached!

I notice that as well And I thought 8000 euro speakers should be perfect in detail !

Imagine you pay 2000 euro for a night in Claridges and find small chocolate on your bad pillow cheep, and half unpacked

Well spotted Mika
