    Thanks for the detailed review. I purchased a pair a couple months ago and loving them. I listen mostly to Acoustic Jazz, and occasional soft rock. I like my sound detailed so I can hear brush sticks on cymbals, pads as they are depressed on saxophone keys, listening to the strings on a cello or violin as the the bow runs across them, etc. I don't listen to movies with them. I power them with Outlaw RR2160 MkII receiver and they seem to be very efficient. Purchased them with a military discount. These speakers do it for me. I had a pair of ESS AMT1B many years ago and these sound similar except that they are not dipole but for my listening room they're great.

    Its refreshing to see an objective review centered around a standardized test for speakers. I don't dig subjective reviews too much because as a consumer looking to buy, they don't immediately tell me to buy or not to buy, but instead just become homework to compile every review, find the similarities between review (such as if 80% or more say the same thing), filter out the oddities (maybe only 1 person out of 5 said it) then pull the trigger and hope you made the right choice.
    Doesn't help I've yet to find an outright bad review of speakers. Like I can find reviews for headphones, TVs, reclining chairs, AVRs, power strip, etc that absolutely trash the product because its overpriced, not worth the money or just a terrible product. But not for speakers.

    Ie. Like when you outlined where one of your peer reviewers made a statement about brightness... Are reviewers ONLY auditing from one static layout, or do they sample from a minimum of 2 or >? Distance from wall for example is HUGE to any perceived performance(s). It alters subjectivity.

    @ErinsAudioCorner Hello Erin. You evaluated this Emotiva T2+ and the Klipsch 8000f II.
    I have steered away from Emotiva due to the limited usage of 4 ohm speakers.
    I have some 8000f on the way. Do you think there is a substantial qualitative loss in the 2-way versus 3 way implementation ? I think this also suffices as a bit of a gripe about Klipsch pricing. The lovely looking copper shouldn't be so expensive :)

      Seconded. The fact that you have a method that standardizes the result by eliminating the room helps. My problem with other reviewers is their opinion based due to how the speaker sounds in their setup. I just want to buy a product and want to be told in a review if a product is or is not worth buying for the price or be recommended others. I've yet to see a speaker review that outright says this product is awful/not worth the money/there are better options. So it makes taking any review seriously hard is everything is "okay"

  • @Artcore103
    @Artcore103 2 года назад +1

    Re: bass.... it's called an EQ! I hate the anti-EQ mindset in "audiophiles". Based on the graph you can eq the bass in down to 30-35hz and bring it up flat with the rest of the spectrum or even boost it to taste. As long as the cabinet design supports it and the drivers can handle it without excess excursion mechanically (outside the gap) then there is no issue. A speaker has to be engineered to be flat with a flat input signal, but they do not have to be flat to be great speakers, they just need to be capable of the desired frequency response with an insignificant amount of distortion. Often the way a speaker is made flatter is to pad the highs... that's no better than boosting the bass! Worse in my opinion. To boost the bass alone with eq you make your amp work harder down low... to play a padded speaker at equivalent volumes you're making the amp work harder across the board. If the speaker can play say 90db clean, then it can play 85db clean with a 5db bass boost. Simple concept. Never settle for unaltered response if you prefer more or less bass or treble. The overall sound depends on many factors so if you like the sound then eq for the response you want with a good multi-band parametric dsp eq. With most larger speakers (depending on desired volume - I'm assuming you want it fairly loud) they can give you between 30 and 40hz at the desired volume with eq. They typically can't really go below that. A sub is generally only REQUIRED for sub 30-40hz bass (not that it can't improve things crossed higher if you have one). I have my speakers set up with a 5 band parametric all points in use, and at 30hz I'm +18db. That's right, +18. This is simply because of the particular odd design of these custom speakers. Is it poor engineering? Sure, from the mindset of flatness. But do they sound great overall and especially in the bass region with eq? Yes. They use pro 15" jbl woofers that, in this particular cabinet and paired with this particular mid and tweeter, are simply not level matched below 150 and especially 100hz. The NATURAL falloff is steep... but the drivers are BARELY moving, which means when I boost 30hz at 18db they're still not moving much and are welllll within their capabilities. No boominess, no distorting the higher range of the woofer, just boosted bass to 30hz. That isn't flat either it's boosted to taste. Maybe 12db might be flat.

  • @dcuccia

    The folded ribbon AMT tweeter is not right for all rooms and can sound very distorted at some frequencies and will need room treatments to correct it. THAT'S A BIG DEAL and a deal breaker for me. Off axis of the AMT is fair, remove the grills for better off axis listening. The T2+ are pretty flat overall and the drivers do sound seamless from one to the other and an overall smooth transition. Mids are very good and the bass is pretty tight, not boomy or sloppy. The price to performance is good.

  • @gregfreeman7968
    @gregfreeman7968 2 года назад

    When you talk about the on axis response are you essentially saying these should be "toed-in" directly at the MLP (or within +/- 20deg) or would that negatively affect the imaging? Thanks for the review, I'm enjoying them allot but looking to dial them in and make sure they are set up as best I can.

    • @ErinsAudioCorner
      @ErinsAudioCorner  2 года назад

      “On-axis” would be with the speaker aimed directly at you. Off-axis would be anything other than that.
      Most speakers are designed to be aimed on-axis. But others benefit from off-axis aiming (toe-out). How much depends on the design, the listener and the room. Hope that helps!

    • @ErinsAudioCorner
      @ErinsAudioCorner  2 года назад

      Per the CTA-2034 spec:
      “In theory, with complete 360-degree anechoic data on a loudspeaker and sufficient acoustical and geometrical data on the listening room and its layout it would be possible to estimate with good precision what would be measured by an omnidirectional microphone located in the listening area of that room. By making some simplifying assumptions about the listening space, the data set described above permits a usefully accurate preview of how a given loudspeaker might perform in a typical domestic listening room. Obviously, there are no guarantees, because individual rooms can be acoustically aberrant. Sometimes rooms are excessively reflective (“live”) as happens in certain hot, humid climates, with certain styles of interior décor and in under-furnished rooms. Sometimes rooms are excessively “dead” as in other styles of décor and in some custom home theaters where acoustical treatment has been used excessively. This form of post processing is offered only as an estimate of what might happen in a domestic living space with carpet on the floor and a “normal” amount of seating, drapes and cabinetry.
      For these limited circumstances it has been found that a usefully accurate Predicted In-Room (PIR) amplitude response, also known as a “room curve” is obtained by a weighted average consisting of 12 % listening window, 44 % early reflections and 44 % sound power. At very high frequencies errors can creep in because of excessive absorption, microphone directivity, and room geometry. These discrepancies are not considered to be of great importance.”

    Erin, what is your audio system that supplies the signals to the speaker under test? Is the system certified by an audio certification standardization body? I ask this because, obviously, a speaker's output is controlled only by the input. Am I correct in my thinking here? I have not seen an audio certification authority yet. I admit I am a bit of a "greenhorn" in the audio world even though I am 50+ years old. It seems that there needs to be a standard to follow. Maybe the testing system you and others have is now the standard.
    I am a welder and a machinist. Those of us in the trades (all trades) have have standards, calibrations and certifications that we must adhere to. But, off course, audio is up to personal taste and objectiveness. Just like any form of art is.

    Do you have a list of center speakers you recommend in the near $500 range maybe up to $700 that have good off axis?

      I am working on a video that will discuss attributes to look for in various center channels and will have a few discussed in there that should fit your needs. Hopefully.

    Read the review and came away not that impressed. I guess for $1k they're all right but I would have expected more output capability for their size. That "folded paper" tweeter real holds it back. I'd rather spend a little more and get something that is smaller, looks better, has better dispersion and has just as much output.

    • @randyjones180

      Not smaller, but the JBL 590's have your other criteria covered.

      @ErinsAudioCorner  2 года назад +1

      Yea, I'm not sure what beats these for this price. Doesn't mean there aren't any options. Just that *I* don't know what they are at this moment. But as I continue to review more and more, maybe I can come up with an answer to that.

    What kind of amp goes well with these? I don't own any

    • @ErinsAudioCorner
      @ErinsAudioCorner  2 года назад +2

      I would see if you can get away with using an AVR. If so, it would save you a little bit of money. If not, then you'd have to pick a budget. These don't need a lot of power unless you're sitting far away. I was using an amp that delivers about 220w @ 4ohms. You can pick up a cheap Crown XLS DriveCore 2 series amplifier (I own the XLS 1502 for my home theater speakers) as a good entry level amplifier with tons of power if you need it.

      At those price points you are (usually) paying more for the look of the speaker than the outright performance. But I have tested a couple $13k+ speakers. Currently have a set at home waiting for test.
