Alright, I took your suggestions (thanks everyone) and redid the test using a single mic, single speaker configuration in a relatively open space outside (wasn't able to raise it too much off the ground). The mic is placed about 29" from the center point between the woofer and tweeter. The wind and background noise was very minimal except for a few birds chirping....but considering the speakers were outputting about 80dB SPL I doubt that had much effect. Anyway, the results look much better this time! - Frequency Response test using Right Mark Audio Analyzer: Left LS3/5A: http://img292.echo.cx/img292/7307/freqrespl1nl.jpg Right LS3/5A: http://img292.echo.cx/img292/4213/freqrespr6al.jpg - RMAA's Spectrum Analysis of 16-bit recorded Pink Noise: Left LS3/5A: http://img292.echo.cx/img292/6397/sp...ispinkl9md.jpg Right LS3/5A: http://img292.echo.cx/img292/5821/sp...ispinkr3sb.jpg It still looks like the HF output might be a few dB low. What do you think? 3 or 4 dB sound about right? Otherwise does the response look pretty flat? What about the dip @ about 5k? Anyhow, the speakers were built to very exact specs and all materials construction techniques were carefully researched and discussed over in the LS3/5A yahoo group (I think those guys loathe me now, lol jk)...Anyhow, I used to build guitars as a hobby so this was a relatively simple project. It's just the electrical/techy stuff that I need help with. For those interested, I'll have a webpage up very soon with very detailed pictures and instructions for how to build your own LS3/5A's. Most of the info I got for my own project, including full cabinet specs was from www.ls35a.com ....Thanks again everyone!! Jonny Durango |
