Hi Amir, Was that the case with all the standmount speakers you tested?

Same situation for me in a parisian flat. Still, I have 2.1 PC speakers and it is great to have the sub render lows effotlessly. I want to try with the Arias.

Which, please? Aria 906 can be bought new for as low as 420€ (pair) during sales in France.

That is less needed than speaker measurements IMHO. DIYAudioHeaven is already doing a good job for headphones. But yes, definitely interesting.

Small room without much room for a sub, integration problems, connection, money...

Speaker correction is not the same as room correction. See here for example: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/an-enticing-marketing-story-theory-without-measurement.7127/post-165304

What room correction for your Aria do you use? Not room-related, but did you try the 800 Hz correction Amir advised in his review? (Q=4, -3dB) https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/focal-aria-906-speaker-review.14085/

Same. If you cross at 70 Hz with steep slope there should be no problem.

Why?

You are right: "British speaker brand Epos has been acquired by Karl-Heinz Fink, founder of German speaker designer firm FinkTeam."

It didn't completely remove it for me.

Try to put the speakers and sub on a power strip and the laptop, DAC... on another. That trick worked for my JBL 305p mk2. Also try reducing speakers gain.

Couldn't it be a worst than average crossover implementation? From Amir's graph, slopes are not steep and there is quite a bit of superposition. What if the drivers are not properly time aligned?

Yes, l already measured that and have it somewhere. But if distortion is low, no matter if it's H2 or H3 right?
