New Active Following A500 on the Buchardt
We've released a standing speaker.

The A500 has not yet been published for all measurements, while the A700 has been released for detailed measurements.

I hope the day when A500 and A700 appear in the ASR review will come.

What are your plans to offer something beyond just iOS support?

Looks like vertical polars were done upside down!

Sorry, but at my age, there's no way that I can read the numbers or legends on those graphs. Could you please make scalable ones available? It's the same on the website.

Thanks!

Similar dip in the sound power response around the crossover region. I would be really curious how a 1” tweeter version would perform, as the tweeter in this model has such a wide dispersion (+/-50° for -6dB) that the Sound Power is basically flat >3kHz.

I've just been reading the A700 Hub manual, and according to that the USB volume can only be controlled from the source device, eg your PC. If that's really the case, it's a deal breaker for me. The volume for other inputs can be controlled from the remote, so why this restriction?

As I said, a deal breaker, and very disappointing too.

That obsession with thin baffles really show in the lack of bass directivity, here.
Is the plan not to have optional cardioid mode for these, which would address that.

Buchard A700 is now shipping in the US. I hope somebody in ASR gets a chance to take spinorama measurements. I'm hoping this has lower harmonic distortion compared to A500.

There's a cardoid tuning for the 700 not the 500.

Anything new on these, or are they still too new for ppl to have experience with? Sadly the border is closed or I could have gone over to listen to them myself!

Thanks for this. I have a pair of the a500s coming and assume similar mastertunings to these will be available for the 500s. My preference was the stock for everything except the low end in which case i preferred the 30hz tuning.
