It’s the new carbon fiber edition (ugly IMO), but it’s just the finish so the performance should be identical. MSRP of the original is $1000/pair, it’s on Amazon currently for ~$750/pair but I’ve seen lower.
Reminder, measurements are valid down to ~100Hz
0/15°/30° Horizontal:
Not liking that dip @15kHz, but otherwise pretty good
45°/60°/70° Horizontal:
Not liking that retained energy @~3kHz, but otherwise very good. Can sound a bit bright, would suggest side-wall treatment.
Listening Window (0°, +/-15° H, +/-15° V):
Very good except the recessed energy @5kHz, but that’s from the vertical performance, but I think +/-15° vertically is too much; for near-field, it’ll likely sound a bit more neutral.
THD (96dB @1m):
Very low (good)
My main grips is it‘s sensitivity is ~85dB and 4ohm, so not a first choice for home theater applications in a large-ish room.
