JBL 305P MKII Preference RatingIt is very flat (no bass drop until 65 Hz where it falls sharply) and very close to the manufacturers measurements, are you confusing the blue lines which are some optional room filters?
SCORE: 4.4
SCORE w/ subwoofer: 6.4
They are very similar except for Smoothness of the Predicted In-Room; however, when looking at the smoothness graphs, they are both very smooth; the only way I can think of as to why it has a score thats ~1/2 as good for Smoothness is the tonal balance, the target slope wants a slope-down, whereas the JBL is almost flat. Now, Amir listened to these on a desk I believe, so that is likely the reason he preferred the wider soundstage; the preference rating is for a listening room. Or, my formula is borked somehow that I can't see (but my formulation matches the one that's generated via the graph). Also, it has ~1/2 the data points, so that effects it a bit.
