Based on the SPL vs Freq graph, It appears to me that the KL-650 speaker is +/-4dB from 80Hz - 20kHz (the same thing between 200Hz-10kHz)?
I compared this to the 2010 Speaker of the year Aperion Verus Tower:Based on the SPL vs Freq graph, It appears to me that the KL-650 speaker is +/-4dB from 80Hz - 20kHz (the same thing between 200Hz-10kHz)?
Yeah, I concur that the Aperion Versus is +/- 1.5dB from 200Hz - 10kHz, which is pretty awesome....the Verus looks pretty stable at +/- 1.5dB from 200Hz to 10kHz...Also wondering why you chose 200Hz as the starting point? From 200Hz to 5kHz the graphs seem pretty similar.. I think most of the +/-4dB fluctuation occurs at 5kHz to 10kHz?
Not a fan boy trying to defend my speakers or anything (I actually was considering Definitive Tech BP7001SC in the past). Just wondering what your thoughts were regarding:Yeah, I concur that the Aperion Versus is +/- 1.5dB from 200Hz - 10kHz, which is pretty awesome.
But I think the KL-650 is close to +/- 4dB from 200Hz-10kHz, which I think is not as awesome.
Home Theater Magazine chose the 200Hz-10kHz on their 5-point average FR, so I just went along.![]()
I take it ALL BACK.The KL-650-THX's listening-window response (a five-point average of axial and +/–15-degree horizontal and vertical responses) measures +1.00/–0.87 dB from 200 Hz to 10 kHz.
The Klipsch THX Ultra II speakers just started shipping last year. These are not the same as the old Klipsch THX speakers based on the pro audio models.
IMOHO the Klipsch THX Ultra II speakers are the best THX speakers on the market.
Mika: PM sent regarding the deal I got on these speakers... btw nice avatar =p did you know? http://thechive.com/2011/03/24/march-24-is-national-sideboob-day/ NSFWCongratulations
I heard these 6mths ago in a large electronics store's open plan theater room, sadly didn't get to hear them full tilt but at mid-low levels the detail was astounding.
I'm curios, how much did u save by waiting this long![]()
Well, a 2.5dB spl difference in that mid band is a pretty significant differences and is audible or should be.I compared this to the 2010 Speaker of the year Aperion Verus Tower:
...I wish the KL-650 graph was zoomed in like the Verus graph to make it easier to compare, but the Verus looks pretty stable at +/- 1.5dB from 200Hz to 10kHz.. How much of an impact would this make sound wise when you compare the two speakers at those frequencies? What should I listen for to hear the difference?
edit: Also wondering why you chose 200Hz as the starting point? From 200Hz to 5kHz the graphs seem pretty similar.. I think most of the +/-4dB fluctuation occurs at 5kHz to 10kHz? (I do agree though that the Verus is handling that section better than the KL-120)
It also does look like the Verus are more stable down to 40Hz like the review mentions. But would this matter if I don't run them large/full range?
I have my Dual KW-120 Subs to take over under 80Hz
I'm pretty new to reading these graphs so any help would be appreciated =)
