Great job!

Are sensitivity figures reliable enough to use?

 

Worth adding a note about tweeters being fixed, switchable. multilevel or adjustable?

 

GR Bass use AES figures for power (which are about 20% higher than RMS, but have the advantage of being properly comparable with other cabs using AES methodology).

Is sensitivity reliably measurement? If so I'll try to find it and add. 

I have to find the tweeter options. Some brands are more helpful than others.

Is this a discontinued product? I'm only adding cabs which are for sale

I bought one brand new (but discounted) last December to give me a pair.

Great resource.  Many thanks. The choices are a little bewildering, but this is a great comparator. Personally my preference over last several years has been Barefaced and Vanderkley and formerly Markbass. All are a good balance of quality and power for the price. Keep up the great work.
