You had mentioned that your speakers weren't overly directional, so that is why I wondered about your XTC readings. Those are really good numbers, so I don't think you're missing anything.I have Sonus Faber Olympica Nova III. Thinking about ORC, but I have Anthem ARC already and it isn't cheep.

Regarding XTC, I'm not sure what you're expecting so:

My problem with finding a track is that usually I'm just playing a shuffled playlist of 2800 tracks. I went through some tracks I know to have the aforementioned behavior. Couldn't hear the issue in Led Zeppelin - Whole lotta love. Maybe I'm imagining to myself that I can hear this a little bit in East17 - Deep (No need to hear the whole song just the first second). Maybe it is just my imagination. Maybe when I have time i'll try to create a test track for this. Anyone knows a nice free app for that?
If we are talking about memory. I was sure I had a noticeable reflection in the Impulse Response.
I also have Anthem that came with my Martin Logan speakers. The ORC gives me a much flatter FR than you are getting. I don't know if it's enough to justify the $1,000 investment. I have an open area house, so a very large listening space and no room treatment. I've considered putting something behind my speakers, but Edgar didn't think it would make much of a difference. And the WAF has been stretched pretty much to the limit.
