    I don't remember where I saw the graph of the Athenas. I think it might have been stereophile. I'll try to find it.

    For comparison here's some graphs of Athena's F2s ...

    Actually, there are speakers with this small of driver putting out good output this low - particularly those using XBL2 tech. It wouldn't be headline material by any means.

    I'm not sure if these pre-production ones are still in-country. If so, I could probably pick them up and measure them myself. I would rather just wait until the production ones are out though.

    I think that may be why the question whose measurements was asked.

    Since the measurements were made with CLIO, I'm guessing they were done by either Danny Ritchie, the designer, or by Mark Schifter. Both have CLIO setups.

    Actually, Mark did say that was the speaker system at $179 + $199, so it is the XLS and X-sub.

    Brad-

    It may be appropriate to include the fact you do work for AV123 in your signature line.
