I have two center channel speakers I am debating between, and will spare the full story as how I got here, but one is an LSIM706C from Polk and the other is a B&W HTM1. Below are two measurements reported from Audyssey XT32 on my Denon AVR. While I realize the Audyssey measurments aren't a replacement for a proper setup , my room is relatively neutral and they're both being measured from the same spot. The question is to the collective ASR experts, is the B&W broken (focusing on the BEFORE, not AFTER graph)?
