4.3 Results
63 loudspeakers were measured before and after equalisation (12 small two-way, 22 two-way, 30
three-way and three large systems). Depending on the product type, not all of the room response
controls are available (Tables 1–4). Table 12 shows the number times a control was used when
available on a loudspeaker. The midrange level control is used the most frequently and the bass
roll-off the least.
