Hello everyone
Recently, I ventured down the rabbit whole of measuring stuff. Got a cheap measurement mic (which is really quite accurate) and some cables/adapters for use accordingly.
My question is however, how to roughly measure speakers while bypassing the room variable. I used to measure at listening position, but found that the measurements would vary drastically deepening on what room I am in or how the speakers are positioned. Therefor, I looked into nearfield measurements. Measurements that are done within say 2-3 inches from the cone of the driver. This actually worked, and I was surprised, however, I have no idea on how to do it correctly.
I measured a pair of sony bookshelf speakers I had laying around and I took 4 different measurements. 1. At the woofer 2. at the tweeter 3. between the woofer and tweeter 4. at the port.
I'm just unsure of where to measure/and or how to combine these in a way. Any discussion with this is much appreciated!!
I can share the measurements if pleased
