The JBL 4412 acoustic pink noise response at the listening position on the speaker axis in our control room at Greenledge Studios on May 17, 2005, JBL left speaker was refoamed, HIGH=-1 MID=-4, using PRAXIS @ 1/12 octave, 65536 points. Raw data obtained using a calibrated Beyer MC740N Microphone set to Omni mode (green trace), and a beyer M88 unidirectional microphone (pink trace).
JBL 4412's sound great. The graph includes the room response, which is affected by room resonances and reflections. The dip in the room response with these speakers in the range 1kHz-2kHz makes them delightfully easy on the ears when they are used unequalized. The close clustering of the transducer complement means that these speakers are especially accurate under nearfield listening conditions. Actually, they may be placed on the console itself, which is also endorsed by the manufacturer. In our control room they are placed as shown on the referring page (Control Room Setup, about 5 feet from the listening position. The joy of Jehovah is your stronghold !
