Speaker measurement - Question for JA

JA,

I enjoy reading your measurement section of reviews in Stereophile. I would like to ask, can you describe how you measure the individual driver frequency response of speakers? If this is a trade-secret, then just give rough idea is ok, or you can email aj_c(at)mail.com

Thanks

Magnepan 3.6R - fell off recommended components?

Forums

I'm curious, Last time I was speaker shopping , the Magnepan 3.6Rs were on the Stereophile Recommended Components A-Restricted Extreme LF list (Oct 2003 - with a $$$ and a star, no less). I've thumbed back thru more recent lists, and they seem to have fallen off.

Any comments on why they fell off the list. For my ear, its a tough choice between them and the Quad 988s.

Thanks!

CD-R from Continuum rig

In M Fremer's review of the Continuum turntable, you wax poetic about the CD-R you recorded form this rig. I'm still trying to optimize CD-Rs (or just great .wav files) captured from my turntable. Can you describe what equipment and software you used to record digital music from your analog setup?

Thanks!

World's Best, another one this month!!!

So now i have to sell my $70,000 rockford turntable and get this month's BEST And now buy teh Kangaroo special for about $103,000. and all i wanted to upgrade is a CHEAP pair of Legacy WHISPERS for ONLY about $15,000. And add 2 more AVA DH500 amps for a total of around 4,000 watts using teh AVA phase inverter (2) so I can drive teh Whispers with 4 amps.
