I recall it is necessary to disconnect the reference channel physically when doing it.

Hmm, a new switch for the jig. 😉

Okay here's the on and off axis for the Dynacords:

And finally for the mids, my second favouritest mid of all time, the Audax HM100Z0. I won't be using it in this design as they are destined for another fate, but I thought it would be interesting to compare.

And the CSD. Oh, for those wondering what happened to the budget Audax, I pulled one out to test and it had gone open circuit, so it's down to the Scans or the Dynacords.

Time to build a baffle for the tweets.

The CSD on that Scan looks very clean within the first fractions of a millisecond.

The offaxis looks better than other two as well. You could quite easily use a 2nd or maybe even 1st order filter with that as there's no real breakup to speak of.

Nice driver, what vintage is it?
 
I'd guess it's nineties from the styling, I really know nothing else - even google doesn't help. Have to get some more 12mm mdf to do some mounting plates for the tweets, so that won't be 'till tomorrow now, then we'll see if one of them has a nice roll off to match.
 
Well, after a brief interlude with much strangeness measuring my Tapped horn prototype, it's back to tweeter testing.

Up first, the budget Audax TM020G7. On and off axis FR graph. Look at the very smooth off axis response, this would be great for one of those upward firing omni jobbies.

And the CSD. Oh, and I've solved a little issue with the MLS testing, occasionally it would glitch and not display any data, sorted by setting the M-audio control panel latency to high rather than the medium it was defaulting to.
