@Thunderlips you seem way off base with your tone on Amir's motivations. Really I'd request you delete a couple of those posts.
I actually think your logic is the perfect reason for doing every measurement consistently on the tweeter axis. As you know, I use KEF LS50s as my mains, which are not that great on-axis and much better off-axis. KEF mentions in the whitepaper that the LS50 are smoother about 10 deg off-axis but if we didn't know that it's obvious from the Spin that the listening window measures better than directly on-axis so we can use that information when we position them. I've seen a few Revel speakers, The F228be most recently, that measures most flat on-axis and tapers off a bit off-axis, this is a great benefit of the CTA-2034 measurement in my opinion, it allows you to place it where it sounds best.

Thank you for your deletions.Deleted. I just don’t like that some hinted Amirm is doing us all a favor and shouldn’t be questioned. It goes both way. This forum would not exists without its viewership. Knowledgeable people have pointed out flaws in the measurement process and it’s only fair to not brush them aside.
I know this is ignoring so much, but just looking at this one graph, I'd rate the Neumann 1st, Revel C52 2nd and 305 mkII third. I believe those also are how the prediction preference scoring formula ranks them according to MZKM's postings.Up to date list after acoustic scan number seven for JBL One Series 104, all seven graphs are divided with microphone calibration but it doesn't mean anything below 12kHz

This account has been suspended. Nobody here has any use for these type of contributions.No one quits a well paying job unless there’s something lucrative. I’m sure Amirm loves attention. This forum is gaining in popularity. There will eventually be ads, etc. Free toys to play with. Making friends in the industry. Donations. Nobody does something for nothing. Don’t be so naive.
A better golf player .What is Amirm without his readership?
Definitely should be questioned as has happened here .Deleted. I just don’t like that some hinted Amirm is doing us all a favor and shouldn’t be questioned. It goes both way.

Agree include C52 and funny in yesterday speculation did this overlay those three united at 640Hz not a bad HT setup he have there.

Finally, no, the KH 80 is not a high-end speaker. It is a tiny little thing and no way would it be fit as use in a regular high-fi system let alone "high-end."
Listening distance
Neumann's subs are equipped with crossover capabilities for the speakers, and it works just fine.Regarding the use of KH80 with subwoofer(s) - how do you cross them?
Response of KH80 drops like stone below 60Hz. But, to make mains and sub(s) to integrate, they shoud have smooth response slopes on both sides of xo. If subs are crossed above 100hz they shoud be doubled and positioned close to the mains.
Neumann's dsp subs obviously can do this. https://en-de.neumann.com/kh-750-dsp
