You can make quasi-anechoic measurements in-room using the method outlined in this thread. https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/how-to-make-quasi-anechoic-speaker-measurements-spinoramas-with-rew-and-vituixcad.21860/ For measurements, the only advantage to measuring at...

Are you saying that the wavelength at the crossover frequency is 1.2-1.4x the ctc spacing? What ctc spacing are you using in that vcad sim?

Active is certainly better overall. I was just noting that this is one particular advantage that passive has over active. The optimal setup might be an active setup that also has passive series notch filters to tame breakup-induced distortion.

It seems like this is an inherent advantage to using passive crossovers over active crossovers. I've never considered this.

So my dad had some Klipsch KG 1.5s lying around. I hooked them up and had a listen. They were pretty bad. I took some gated on-axis measurements and they were... well as bad as I expected based on how they sounded. But this was a blessing in disguise for me. I love engineering and building DIY...
