    QC Spook regarding the new KEF R Meta

I recently laid my eyes on the new KEF R Meta series, purchasing one R6 Meta unit first and ordering two more for LCR duty a few days back, which arrived earlier today.

    So, if my understanding is not mistaken, NFS can scan for the entire sphere across which the speaker is radiating energy and compute the far-field response at any point on that sphere, while the CTA2034 graph generated from the NFS scan uses *only* the 360 degrees horizontal and vertical...

    Incremental updates on Genelec Designs

    As the title suggests, usually what gets changed when the letter behind a genelec model number moves one place down the alphabet? I see that the change from 8351A to B was fairly significant in terms of drivers used, is this the norm? Additionally, is there a pattern as to how often does Genelec...
