My take on these measurements:
Regardless of whether this is a dud or this is how all of the Wow1's measure, it clearly wasn't Salk's intent. That's not a defense of the measurements, just wondering where things went amiss. The on-axis posted on Salk's site doesn't match the result here at all, and I find it hard to believe one would design a speaker with such an otherwise flat on-axis(it's very good other than the 500-700hz hole), and well-controlled horizontal directivity just to to leave a big ol' hole in the mids like that.
Curious to see what the response is!
