Middle curve: 60 degrees off-axis response
Bottom curve: 75 degrees off-axis response
Chart C: 20Hz - 20kHz (measured @ 2m, plotted @ 1m)
Additional measurement to show full frequency response with data supplied by Paradigm from 20Hz to 200Hz. The Paradigm-supplied data came from measurements taken in the company’s anechoic chamber, with the speaker measured over 360 degrees
Curve: on-axis response
Listening window
20Hz - 20kHz (measured @ 2m, plotted @ 1m)
Response curve is an average of five measurements: on-axis, 15 degrees left and right off-axis, 15 degrees up and down off-axis
