![]() But I’d say get the DB62 if you do not and are between these two. So, I’d recommend this speaker if you do have EQ. If you have a miniDSP - to fix the response imbalance - this might well be worth the purchase but it is definitely going to be output limited. Even the MTON distortion when “high passed” at 80Hz is quite high in the midrange. The compression is rather bothersome, too. I’ve provided a prediction of that result via REW. However, thanks to the good horizontal directivity, with a single high-shelf filter, the difference can be made up quite easily and the speaker is much better, imho. It’s because I’m looking for specifics and not expecting broadband differences like I’m seeing in this speaker. ![]() Every now and again I come across a speaker that does something like this where the issues I have with it aren’t easily identifiable. But when I saw the data I realized what it was. I couldn’t figure out exactly what I didn’t like when I was listening. Enclosure Type : 2- Way Bass Reflex Frequency Response: 46Hz 35000Hz Nominal Impedance: 6 Ohms Sensitivity: 86db 2.83v/1m Crossover Frequency: 2200Hz. It’s not like it “jumps out” at you or is “sharp” like you would get when you have a peaking in the response at a particular frequency. Unfortunately, there’s a weird +3dB “step” at about 1.5kHz which makes the speaker sound uneven. And my hope was that it would be a better alternative for those who knew they wanted a subwoofer anyway… then you could save some money and get these over the DB62. I was really hoping this would be better than the DB62 simply because smaller midwoofer should make for better directivity (all things equal). If its 50:50 usage, its mostly a no brainer for the speaker with the larger driver (3030i). ![]() But a couple quick notes based on my listening and what I see in the data: Thats an interesting choice of options - a 5 incher vs a 6.5 inch. For details about the performance (objectively and subjectively) please watch the YouTube video. As stated in the Foreword, this written review is purposely a cliff’s notes version.
