Aren't both the reviewers "pros"? Bill is a speaker designer/ builder.

Perhaps so, but that is what the editor's comment (at the end of the review) says.I have never heard of a designer/builder reviewing a sample that falls into their product category. That would be a first.

I assume you are "forgetting" Peter Aczel's review of his Fourier speakers?
Wow,.... guess I can cancel that trip now!
There will be no "G'Day Mate" for you sir!
I found both B. Hobba and M. Lenehan very personable and accomodating. The speaker just didn't work out in my system/room. The other reviewer had a differing opinion. Seems Wilson and I are being raked over the coals, when in fact, the speakers I had when I reviewd the ML1's were the EA MM3. I only had the Alexias for a few weeks before I had the send the ML1's back!
Regardless, measurements typically do not relay the actual end result as to what hits a listeners ears. A basis or foundation perhaps, yes. A tell all? No.I assume that the other reviewer did the measurements....

Speaker measurements and how they react in a room are 2 totally different things, for sure!
Indeed, it would have been instructive to have available the in-room response of the loudspeaker for either listening environment
Just for this review or for every loudspeaker review?
If only for this review, why?
I would propose in-room response be explored, and not limited to this sole review, to examine possible degrees of correlation between empirical measurement and qualitative description.
