yes jack there is a graph. I do not know whether he did it or it came from the manufacturer literature.

I think it is one on the Magico Q1 review.

I'm not a subscriber anymore but yes, I think it would be a first to actually have the graph shown.

I found the the Magico review and one from Audio Physic. It appears they are supplied by the manufacturer. Baby steps.

It requires a commitment of resources to do measurements the correct way. We pay NRC engineers to do our speaker measurements – this is not cheap for us. But over and above that, we also have to either have the manufacturer ship them there or Doug Schneider brings them himself. It's work. Now I know one of the criticisms against us is that we do not measure everything we review. That's true. But we do typically publish speaker measurements every month on SoundStage! HiFi. My point of this is not to simply promote what we do, but to point out that in-room graphs (I do those too) and manufacturer-supplied graphs in no way equate to properly conducted third-party measurements done in an anechoic chamber.

Such a big fan of Magico questioning the credibility of his graphs?:b
