3-Way Co-ax Floorstander

To understand the directivity and the influence of the horn you can EQ the speaker to flatten its on-axis response (0°), then remeasure. The new measurements will show a flat response on-axis, while deviations off-axis reveal how the speaker’s directivity behaves. As shown above, I’ve taken measurements both with and without EQ. Does that make sense?

Still had my default smoothing on from the sub measurements. Here are the important ones unsmoothed. Gated at 2.5ms.

13 years ago I had a toddler vs ultra slim speaker problem too. I wanted a minimalist look without plates or outriggers so I came up with a rather odd, drastic to some, mounting solution. Once I had settled on exact speaker placement I secured the hardwood flooring to the subfloor with screws and routed out a large key hole in the floor under each speaker then made an aluminum flange that bolted onto the center of the speaker base. The speakers dropped into the key hole and slid back to lock into place. They could not be moved but rotated if needed. When we sold the house I had to plug the holes in the floor but it wasn't very hard to grain match the bland even grained maple and refinish those spots.
