My measured bass response of Thiel 2.3s


hi,

At present my living room ( 24X14X8 ) system consists of a Rega Apollo, a Cary SLI-80 and Thiel 2.3 speakers. The speakers are 10 feet apart and the listening position is 10 feet away. I used a Radio Shack digital sound pressure meter and Stereophiles test disk vol I. The 1000 htz warble tone was normalized at 80 db at the listening position

1000 htz +- 0
200 +- 0
160 +- 0
125 + 4 db
100 + 2 db
80 + 5 db
63 - 5 db
50 - 7 db
40 + 2 db
31.5 + 1 db
25 - 12 db

I was surprised on how deep it can go being relatively undepowered by the standards of most Thiel users and using a tubed amp. I must say I really like the sound coming from these speakers.

Thats a good curve. I think you can change it if youd want by bringing them out further or closer to the rear wall.
Good curve, you should see what my stucco box house looked like. here is with JBL 4435. ( I have Much better now )
