I agree with some of what you say. Everything reviewed by ASR is kinda reviewed against the Harman standard, which I agree is probably inappropriate for a a dipole speaker like this that's designed to use the room.
Still, it's hard to think of a speaker that would be more useful to have complete measurements for. I agree that the review part may not be all that useful, since we have no standard to compare it to. This is why it would be hugely beneficial for science, though. The Harman metric is a great way to assess monopole speakers, but we just don't have anything like that for Dipole or Omni designs. The LX521 is what I would consider an "end game dipole" speaker, so seeing measurements for it will go a long way towards giving us that standard that other dipoles might be judged against.
Since you live in Seattle, maybe you could drop both speakers off at Amir's(most can't do that because it would double shipping costs). Perhaps
@amirm could agree to just measure it, and then just give it a "I don't know mailman" panther as he did with the in walls(essentially saying I don't know, since we have no standard to compare to). I would be very interested to hear Amir's impressions of a stereo comparison to his Salon2s, which represent end game monopoles.
Ultimately up to you, and I honestly don't blame you for not wanting to, but I do think it would be hugely beneficial for the science loudspeakers, and especially useful for those of us(like me) who plan to own this speaker some day. As
@Francis Vaughan brought up, I'd also be willing to chip in money to help with transportation costs, and I'd bet others would be too. I'd actually be willing to chip in up to $100
