How does it make sense that they only go down to 60hz when they have 4X10 inch woofers ?
Because they are made to be loud, not go low. Pro drivers typically do not dig deep.How does it make sense that they only go down to 60hz when they have 4X10 inch woofers ?View attachment 287919View attachment 287920

They are short on measured data.If this speaker is the same competend build as the 'competent' information on there web about it. I would be very, very sceptical about it.

I didn't find much eitherI think you could easy say very short on every data. Or maybe iam to stupid to find some?
Not bad.RTJ 410 and RTJ18 Modular Sub/Sat Speaker System Review
Recently, we got a demonstration of the RTJ 410 and RT18Sub Massive modular speaker system at the Audioholics Smart Home. We give our listening impressions and compare to our reference RBH SVTRS system.www.audioholics.com
I cross to the real woofer (15") at the baffle step, 110Hz, to minimize Doppler distortion in the SEAS. I didn't pay that much for drivers to screw up the signal by misapplication I imagine they had the same thought; these are made to run loud and clean.Hi
This is something that tend to fly in the face of conventional wisdom... Full range speakers may not be "the way", to go in a most systems. This has been studied by eminences such as Floyd E. Toole, Alan Devantier, Sean Olive and Earl Geddes to name a few.. There have been others... It seems to be a better design strategy, to leave the low end to subwoofers and optimize the speaker from where you would cross with subwoofers (as in several). This is, to paraphrase someone here and the Mandalorians , "the way" .
Geddes, top of the line, the Summa , was a 2-way with an 18 inches woofer + a waveguide fitted with a compression driver... stated FR was from 60 Hz to 18,000.oo... Sensitiviy was at least 96 dB... I had no doubt that this beast could play 120 dB + at listening positions of several meters...
No idea about this RTJ speaker, but leaving the <60 Hz to subwoofers, make sense...
Peace.
I saw what you did thereHi
