Signature Series 41-SE Measurements and Analysis

Here are some real world measurements for the 41-SE's using MLS software.

Note: The above plot is a 1/3 ocatve smoothed in room response at 1-meter. Notice the uniform frequency response and excellent extension. Their is a slight bump between 50-60 Hz which can be attributed to port contribution. This bump helped to give the little 41-SE's such authoritive bass without boominess or muddiness typically found on lesser designed systems. The average efficiency of the 41-SE's is somewhere between 85-86dB (1watt/meter). Thus we recommend mating these speakers with a quality power amp of at least 100-Watts/Channel if loud listening levels are desired.

Note: The impedance of these speakers is nominally 8 ohms with a somewhat dramatic rise in the midrange area indicating that a good quality power amp should be utilized to bring out the optimal performance of these speakers. Electrical phase changes of less than 60 degrees within the power band of these speakers indicates a less reactive load to an amplifier which is always a good thing.
