Παρατήρηση για το στήσιμο του ηχείου στο χώρο:
So while the direct sound of the Scorpio experienced by a listener sitting with his ears on or just below the tweeter axis will lack presence, the room's reverberant field will have a full measure of energy in this region. The larger or more reverberant the room and the farther away the listener sits, the more the Scorpio's treble will sound neutrally balanced. Conversely, the smaller and deader the room, the more the speaker will sound distant, lifeless, and hollow. But these plots do suggest that Scorpio owners experiment with toe-in to get a satisfactory tonal balance.
O επίλογος:
When I examine a loudspeaker like the Audio Physic Scorpio, I am compelled to wonder why the designer chose the specific drive-unit polarities that he did. Yes, the spatially averaged response in MF's room was superbly flat, but a conventional arrangement of drive-unit polarities would also have measured flat in-room, and would have made the speaker less fussy about setup and listening axis
