Great video very informative. Just what I needed. Thanks.

[@SocialClubSound]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jamieremus277]

Thank you, this is the best video I have seen on this subject so far. Due to my desk and space not being ideal, I have no choice but to place my KRK 7” monitors on their side. I am curious to try this test on them as well.
Cheers,
Jamie :)

If you have a reference mic take some measurements! As long as the spacing between the woofer and tweeter play nice you get more leeway with placement

[@grahamwaller417]

Super interesting stuff. Thanks for this, bud!

Send Danny (GR Reasearch) a pair and 👀 see if he can build a crossover any flatter or would he give props 👏 to your Xover design?
Just curious to hear his thoughts for entertainment purposes only.

[@digibranded]

This is cool can you do one on passive radiators?

[@SocialClubSound]

Sure! I'll tackle it in an upcoming video

[@nataliahertzog4995]

Pretty crazy how close the Inclined Fidelity speakers come to the Amphions. 😮

[@Tazmanian_Ninja]

Doesn't mean they SOUND the same. These are measurements. How a speaker actually sounds, requires either more measurements (off-axis responses, sound power, etc) OR (gasp...) listening to it.

[@chinmeysway]

don’t the back of those monitors reflect a lot or do you mix in front of them ?

[@SocialClubSound]

When you say the back of those monitors do you mean my touchscreen video monitors? If that's what you mean, I have them placed and angled so there's no sound from the speaker directly reflecting off them.
