Stumbled across my L100's when a forum member was here last week, and thought it would be interesting to see what the RTA said about them.
"Forward," indeed! About 6 dB's worth.
First curve is attenuators set to "Lab Standard" zero.
So, maybe the Zilchster's 123A-1's have eaten it over the years?
Nope. Put in 2213H, same settings, second curve.
Can I dial them flat? Well, nearly. Both controls set to "-3" (9:00, third curve) gets closest, but it also kills HF extension above 12.5 kHz, and "forward" voicing remains. Only autoEQ could fix them, apparently.
I recall another forum member recently determining that "-" settings were most appropriate.
Anybody else with L100's and an RTA willing to confirm this?
'Cause I look at my results and say, "Well, THAT'S certainly WRONG!"
Surely, I'm not the first to have actually measured them. Maybe itza "Don't ask, don't tell" thing.
If somebody came up with a decent crossover for these things, there MIGHT be a market for them.
