Can't see on my phone but I think they use the Seas A26 woofer or a modified version of it.
With a soft paper cone the breakup looks worse on paper than it sounds
Seas do a kit speaker with that driver. The woofer is run direct, without any crossover components.
Also, what the feck is that tonearm?
I don't see why not. Here is a direct comparison with the chart Tuga provided above for the E iii you owned.
I stand by my previous comment!
Hmmm, even John Atkinson who downplays all but the most glaring shortcomings, dismissing them as "character", had this to say:
Even though I knew about the low-treble resonance and the lively enclosure, these problems were considerably less audible than I was expecting. Only with recordings of solo acoustic piano did they get in the way of the music by producing noticeable coloration, the piano's midrange sounding uneven, with some notes obscured.

If you read between the lines (as you should with audio reviews) you'll realise that the although he is toning it down resonance is indeed a bit obvious.
Whether it matters is down to the listener and his expectations.
That's pretty much what you'd expect. The point I was trying to make was the breakup doesn't sound nasty or harsh like a harder cone would. Softer cones are more forgiving.
Stereophile A***** for not 'quite floor-standing little stand' category or something like that.
