When a measurement of a driver is taken at very close range, such as a few centimetres, it gives a response curve which is relatively unaffected by the room. But the curve seems to have a downward tilted response, especially through the mid range frequencies. I have noticed this when looking at the driver response curves in loudspeaker reviews, including on this site.
Example (from the Focal Aria 906 review):
Is there a correction curve that can be applied to these up-close measurements to adjust them to equate to measurements that would apply at 1 m or 2 m? I’m interested in measuring the on-axis response of a few drivers and old speakers at home.
cheers
