Thiel 3.6's - Stereophile measurements


I have not had the benefit of an audition with these speakers. There are few dealers still selling them. My question is regarding the measurements which accompany the Stereophile review from 1993. The frequency response measurements show a big suckout in the midrange at 45" distance. At 10-15 feet is this suckout apparent? Are there any coherency issues with this speaker that I should be aware of? My listening position is 14 feet from where the speakers will probably be setup in my room.

Jazzdude: JA has acknowledged that these response measurements obtained for spaced-driver first-order speakers, such as the Thiels, are the predictable result of his limited distance mic placement.

Dan: You've been busy...I didn't know you had gone ahead and gotten the 2.4's. Still haven't heard them myself. Hope you're enjoying, but it sounds like there might be issues...
