I measured a pair of 8330A's a couple days ago.
(The owner of these speakers bought them a month ago).
Frequency Response
Acoustic axis : outer rim of the woofer as instructed in the manual.
Directivity
Polar plot
THD
Multitone test
Each SPL.
Compression test (with Multitone)
Compression test (with Sine sweep)
Since I use nearfield measurement, the grilles on this speaker prevented me from getting close enough to the woofer.
Therefore, LF is different from the NFS data measured by @amirm
But... See?
We can see the same thing at 2.2 kHz.
I thought this issue was resolved with GLM two years ago.
So I took one of the two speakers the owner brought in and measured it without resetting the GLM settings.
However, the response at that frequency was the same.
Can this really be explained as a coincidence due to product variation?
I use a different microphone than Amirm.
