Legacy Audio Studio HD Measurements and Analysis
The graph below shows the frequency response of the Legacy Studio HD on-axis (red), 15 (green) and 30 (blue) degree off-axis horizontally, 15 degrees off-axis above (yellow) and below (purple) the tweeter, and an average of these responses (black) at 1 meter, smoothed 1/12 of an octave, and offset for easier viewing. All measurements were taken in room, so keep in mind that the low-frequency response is affected by room modes.

And here is the average response spliced at 300Hz with a .5 meter indoor ground-plane measurement for a more accurate picture of the bass response.

You might notice that slight rise around 15kHz. All measurements were taken with the grill off, while I did the vast majority of my listening with the grill on. In the graph below, you can see on-axis measurements with the grill on (red) and off (blue), and how that rise is flattened with the grill in place.

Below is the on-axis response as affected by the Treble Filter Switch.

The treble filter produced predictable results, dropping the high frequencies centered at 10kHz by about 1.5dB, a little less than spec.
