Fountek FR88EX Fullrange review
Fountek FR88EX Fullrange review.
Cliff's notes: Low sensitivity. Ok midrange. Bad outside of this. Some pretty wild FR for a "fullrange" above beaming. High HD below 300hz; use a crossover for sure no lower than this. And HD around the breakup regions. All these comments are pretty typical of *most* fullrange drivers and why I don't use them myself unless there's a real need. YMMV.

Thanks for posting the reviews. I used to visit your earlier site, but always had a difficult time understanding kippel analysis. Is there a primer somewhere - I know you don't put your thoughts around the curves - maybe that's a suggestion too?
Regards

Yea, I plan to either make a video or attempt to have a succinct write-up on things to look for in these reviews. I try to cover the high points with the data in my "Wrap-Up" section but I tend not to delve too far in to the measurements because, frankly, I don't always understand every implication that may be there and I think it's better to not speak on something I don't know than pretend like I do.
Hi Erin,
I was reading the "Test Methods" section on your website and was wondering if you are using the same IEC test baffle as listed in the Legacy Review section? I am currently building a DIY IEC test baffle for my own use at home and was wondering what your thoughts are on the baffle size needed to get good measurements. Thanks. Bill
