I said no such thing. All I've said is I agree with the research as I have no scientific basis from which to disagree with it. You don't either, but that hasn't stopped you from disagreeing with it.
Of course the room influences a speaker's response all the way up. I agree with the research that says at high frequencies our ears separate direct and early reflections from late arriving reflections--which is why many who do EQ at low frequencies, will not EQ at high frequencies based upon the steady state room curve--possibly messing up the direct sound to "fix" late arriving reflections. So if that's your standard for "using room EQ," then you are correct to be skeptical as most of us don't agree it's generally the right thing to do.
Oh, hell ya!
Not only this but also a bad off axis, response.
True but you can combat this using phase plug like methods.
.... Mmmmmm.... They have too many significant drawbacks.
Have you listened to the Fane Sovereign 12-250TC or the Fane Sovereign 15-300TC?
The 12 inch changed my mind.
I'm afraid you can't. It's a fundamental problem of cone size V signal wavelength.
A 12" driver will beam high frequencies.
Yes it will by nature.
Did you measure it?
So it's off axis response is going to be all over the place.
Yes.
Since the highs were still somewhat dominant (on axis, off axis not so much) I used a small square shaped piece of polyester fleece in the middle on axis on that rod to dampen the highs a bit and then it sounded fine.
I didn't bother to measure it afterwards though.
Are you seriously using this and consider it full range? It's 40dB down by 10kHz!

It is not.
Due to the triple cones it will go up to 18kHz easily.
Try this one:

Yes, but just imagine the bone crushing full range bass you get from 3.5mm Xmax.
The measurements are there in front of you. It does no such thing.
There is a difference between having a response and having a flat response.
ALso the cone will probably be breaking up.
Your "Measurement" says "Simulated Response" on top of the diagram.
Look at my post above which is a real measurement.
