Almost flawless speaker! Other than the bump in distortion at 200Hz and the tragic sensitivity.
Any idea for how much it will be priced?

Looks like 1500 GBP. That puts in the same price range as KEF R3 and Revel M105.
I eat my hat then. Thats quite impressiveKali rates the IN-8 v2 as ideal for mid-field use with spec of 85 dB continuous with 20 dB headroom for 105 dB peaks at up to 3.5 meters (11.5 feet). In other words the IN-8 v2 can meet THX studio reference level at up to 11.5 feet. From this perspective it doesn't appear to be at any disadvantage to the UBR62.

it starts compressing at 100 dBSPL @ 1 meter. While the Kalis are miles better in that regard than the ELACs, I wouldn’t call them THX reference capable just yet![]()
Erin states "MSRP for a pair of the UBR62 speakers is currently $999 USD." It doesn't look like a $2,000/pair speaker.
I don't know anything about the THX standard; namely, how it is measured. My tests aren't meant to emulate anyone else's test in this regard.
$599.98 pair right now at Crutchfield, just in case anyone wanted to know. I'm assuming these are the correct ones. lol

That's the Debut Reference not the Uni-Fi Reference.$599.98 pair right now at Crutchfield, just in case anyone wanted to know. I'm assuming these are the correct ones. lol

And the Uni-Fi's are 999.98. Sorry.
pink noise with a C-weighted mic should measure 85 dBSPL at the listening position at -20 dBFS and the the amp and the speakers should be capable of 105 dBSPL at 0 dBFS.
it’s one of the reasons why i’m advocating for slightly louder distortion and compression measurements.
