What speakers do you currently own?

Hi!
Here is another member of the “you can never own enough loudspeakers - but you may have not enough rooms for them” club :) , so here are mine:

- My most beautiful Fischer & Fischer SN 450, in my main listening room
- QUAD ESL 57 in my bedroom, aka my 'other' listening room
- Fischer & Fischer custom made 2-way bookshelf speaker in our living room
- DIY LePetit à la Markaudio CHP-90, in parallel as TV/Video speaker in my main listening room, w/ Nubert AW-550 sub if needed
- Celestion 3 bookshelfs in my wife's bedroom
- Tannoy subsat 3 system, for dining room/kitchen
- ATL Hans Deutsch HD310i, in my room somewhere North
- Genelec 8010 + A5040(?), in bags for outside/travelling
- Soundmatters FoxL V2, the only tiny (Bluetooth-)speaker that I really(!) enjoy listening to!

QM60 used to exist as well. I'm still curious about it but it's seldom sold used.

Ideally I'd want Ino Audio pi120s. It's from the same designer Ingvar Öhman.

In regards to that white speaker: The diffraction from that stepped baffle must be giving some serious dispersion irregularities. Compounded by crossing over to what looks like an 8 inch driver, I can’t imagine this being a successful design.

They are very serious constructions which make most speakers sound like toys

This is why I'm not for instance so convinced that Ascilabs would be an upgrade

pi60, signal vs outcome:

Frequency response on signature version of pi60. should be similar to the white speaker:

How about horizontal and Vertical polar plots?
Nothing is designed to be narrow.
I've seen some measurements many years ago but nothing I have saved on the hdd or lost over the years.
There's usually info on how to toe-in, how close to the wall, in which distance the sound is the best etc. And if you look at the video above you can see that the room is far from echo-y. There's tons of information that most speaker brands do not give to the buyers.

Even the cheapest speakers like Ino Audio piP are also designed to go deep (34hz:ish), monitor like qualities to give objective truth. Some speakers are specifically made for studio use.
There are even bigger systems, but nothing I can afford to buy anyway (and long waiting time, can't order without evaluation first in Stockholm) so no need to go into it all..

This speaker for instance can go incredibly loud, so nobody is supposed to sit close to it.
