I finally got a pair of Olympus's (and matching Delphi cabinet with mac gear). Unfortunately they are the C50 S7R and not the highly desired S8's.
While listening to them using MC gear I felt they were very bright and lacking a little low end punch. I also have a pair of Dorian's which sound much better on the low end and not as metallicy sounding.
Being the nerd I am I got the mic and sound card out and did some frequency measurements (below). What I noticed is a somewhat flat bass response until around 300Hz where there is a 10dB loss. Is this expected? My guess is that the original Lansalloy is a little rigid and not letting the woofer move at the higher frequencies, but I could be wrong.
Is this is the expected frequency response for these speakers or is there some improvement I can do to improve this?
