Anyone have Warfedale Linton 85th anniversary?


I saw this review on Erin's website was wondering if anyone has these speakers and what you think of them.

GR never show the SPL chart below 200 hz for his measurement. How can he evaluate the bass response / performance for any speaker I wonder. In this case here I would agree and have more trust in Erin’s measurements and his subjective assessments.

Here’s my Warfedale In room average. As you can see it needs some tweaking below 200hz.  But they really sound great the way they are. 

I guess it is room dependent.  Take a look at Erin's plots which reveals nothing like that.  Between 40 and 100 hz, the roll off is quite mild and smooth in Erin's in room response.

I didn’t see Erin’s in room response. I saw his spinorama data. There is an estimated in room response. Perhaps he did some, I know he has in the past.

I see what you’re referencing I believe those are taken at 1 meter. My measurement is without any EQ at 3 meters. I did EQ them to be smoother but didn’t notice any difference in sound since I tweaked the bass a bit in my streamer app which I didn't bother to measure. 

His HF start  rising at approximately 5K mine at 10K, he is measuring On Axis I'm not.   Sorry for not adding all that with the original plot. No two are going to look alike. I also have mine close to the front wall. I could seal the ports or move them out and the bass would look completely different.
