In the Thread: Goto SG-370DX measurement
Post Subject: Learn to readPosted by martinshorn on: 3/20/2018
ah come on guys. Measures have to be understood properly. U can’t judge every tiny pixel. And also you cant say a tilt here will sound bright or dull, coz your room can change this. Ok. Doesn’t mean everything is upside down either. Doesn’t mean, if your driver dies at 5 and agressively rings at 7k , on your listening room it will suddenly twitter like bird from heaven till 40k. It is about tendencies. And i see that Goto has very old fashioned ball-cone phase plugs. Just like WE. That of course causes phase cancellation and the drop of high frequency as we can see. So Goto are for narrow bandwith only. It kind of forces the user to make more effort with the crossover. Possible reason for better sound. Also Goto does not squeeeze the spund through many slim sharp edged slits. Also possible... or, like its the magnet. However, certain things like tilt and Cutoff really depend on rhe horn only. And there is little value in individual measures. BUT, the top octave behavior, does the titan ring? Does the phase plug cancel? How hi can i go? - is reflected here. Sure, the microphone will add to >10kHz. So in a way the SG16 wont be shown perfect. Below 1k the room usually rules in distance. But it is about tendencies. Seeing more transparent about the goto engineering and consequences and possibilities and limits. So, i repeat myself, post the measures, show us what one can do with Goto (we don’t care how it sounds in ur livingroom!!!) - very appreciated!!Please share
