Full Version: Use for Audio Work: How flat are they (freq curve)?

Folks,

I'm interested in building a full-range audio workstation for surround sound work in Ambisonics and using the phantoms for that purpose.

How flat are the phantoms?  

Does anyone have any speaker measurements?  

Would anyone recommend them for editing and mastering work? 

For what it's worth, i'd be hard wiring them to avoid and drift.

Thanks,

Reference the Phantom 1.4.1.12 measurements thread as a starting point. I think you'll be "pioneering" in using a flock of Phantoms for near field surround audio engineering. Will you be building/buying the source controller?
I'll be using my Linux computer and LV2 plugins as the source controller.

Also, beware the inherent system latency of around 150msec, not sure it would even effect you but something to take into consideration.
Slight aside here, slightly amused at the fact the Phamtoms will never alow live DJs through them due to the above mentioned latency.
150ms? Wow. Even when hardwired? Does anyone know why they were designed that way? Is that as software function?

Yes, it's a shame you can't DJ though them, as they'd be great for that.

As far is I know it is due to the DSP (and syncing between Phantoms).
