Wow, what a great thread! I have to take some time and resurrect my Evelyn Wood speed reading skills from way back.  Thanks for posting this! |

Good reviews--no conclusions?

Good reviews--no conclusions? Probably when they're done testing and reviewing all the speakers. |

Interesting read. Thanks for the link. Would have been even more compelling to see the T2 ($999/pair) in the mix...  |

Looks to be an interesting comparison showing how well Dirac works with a variety of loudspeakers.

Those with a white background are measured results, with REW I believe. Those with a blue background are Dirac's graphs that are predicted results (as far as after correction results are concerned)... very consistent with measured results anyhow. Flavio |

Flavio Thanks Flavio, Love dirac, however, REW post dirac rarely shows measurements anywhere near as flat as dirac predictions. Or am I missing something? |

Thanks Flavio, Love dirac, however, REW post dirac rarely shows measurements anywhere near as flat as dirac predictions. Or am I missing something? Good question... in order to compare results the conditions should as similar as possible, we have two options... 1- Measure in nine points in REW as well (the same of course) and average the results (REW has a button that allows that) 2-Measure in one point only in Dirac as well (that can be done by skipping the measurements after the first one by clicking Proceed) Also the smoothing should be similar (Dirac uses 1/8 octave I believe) Flavio |

IMO there needs to be a set of more expensive speakers thrown in for sharts and gaggles, maybe something like a pair of Wilson Sofia's haha that would make for some extra fun, see how much better or not $20,000 speakers fair with the listeners.

Those XPA-1 gen 2's representing quite nicely in that setup! I also like that they did some effort to optimize placement.
