A review just came out in Stereophile, with measurements.
Almost five years after I submitted my review of Dynaudio's Focus 200 XD class-D active bookshelf loudspeakermy first product review for Stereophileword of its imminent successor, the digital Focus 10 class-D active bookshelf loudspeaker ($5500/pair), and its two larger siblings arrived via Mike...

Can someone with experience and knowledge with speaker measurements comment?
I really wish John Atkinson measured distortion. I'd like to compare the low end performance to the smaller KEF LS50s. For me, I'd be adding a sub and chopping off the low end anyway, but still.
Also, I'm perplexed by the step response. Dynaudio usually has first order crossovers. Their older active Focus line had a classic first order shape, which should be easy to do. Yet seems like they chose not to with the 10s. I wonder why? People say it doesn't really matter, but I have always imagined that it should, and it's nice to see the smooth shape on the KEF actives.
The horizontal and vertical directivity seem pretty good for a classic two way configuration.
