No, I joined to learn more about DACs and Amplifiers. I have never seen a website doing independent, unbiased evaluations of audio gear. This place is one of the best resources I’ve found for consumers. Facts and Data.
I just happen to have speakers for sale.

I would love to see how these measure. Maybe ship to Amir and leave it there until the sale, if he accepts? The exposure would surely increase the chances of selling. :)

Considering Dynaudio has there own anachoic chamber, I find it frustrating how inconsistently they publish thier own measurements. Ultimately, that's what stopped me from buying a pair of Contour 60's.

I would be very interested to see how these measure.

The Jupiter measuring facility.

I’ve had a pair of Contour 1.3’s for almost 23 years. I bought all new drivers last year. I bought these special 40’s to get me through the rebuild as I listen to music 4+ hours a day.
I can say the 40’s best the contours in vocals but I never got over how beautiful the contours are.

there can be only one.

Now I bet Dynaudio would be very curious to check Klippel NFS data and compare to theirs. :)

+1 for sending to Amir - think of it as an investment - if they measure well you can raise the price ;)

See if a member or two are willing to pay for the shipping costs.

Stereophile measured them. Biggest offender is the dip ~1500Hz which shows up even in JA’s averaged in-room measurements, good news is the directivity is very well controlled, so it is easily EQ’d. The issues at 1500Hz also show up in the vertical off-axis, so not a first pick for near-field.

Count me in! How much?
I’m only guessing $270 (2-4 day UPS) to keep them off a ground route. That is for the pair. It would be great to have both done for a “pre sale “ certification
