Skip forwards to the measurements page and observe the double impedance bump at 20Hz and 50Hz, which is a sign of a reflex port.
My T-Lines measure more like a transmission line should.
Wasn't it Gilbert Briggs who said impedance tells you the truth?
Dan, is that Vifa tweeter a metal dome? They did make metal dome ( aluminium ) tweeters. I did a quick search for Vifa drivers and I spotted an aluminium cone midrange with six hole fitting and cast basket that looked very similar to that in your TDL Studio M. Have you removed a mid range unit yet? That might just be a Vifa unit too.
Yes I might consider moving my TDLs on. I've had them a long time and I've never seriously thought of parting with them until recently. They are part of a second system which doesn't get much use though I'm still quite attached to them.
Impedance shows this model is really a high Q reflex with the dreaded showroom friendly bass hump, which means that you have lost the main reason for owning a TDL or IMFI sold on my pair of Studio 1s fairly quickly. Once the short term bass impressiveness wears off, you realise that it can't actually play in time. rapidly becomes annoying.
The bass circuit doesn't have any way to drop output unless the DCR is unusually high.
Are all your driver original?
Its very possible, but the later Elac 25DT, like the ones in my 0.75m and on the studio 1m did have three bolts around the dome. But, as you say, they still had the TDL logo embossed on the plate.I've just had another look the Studio Monitor and Reference speakers on the cover of the brochure and they both have three bolts in the centre of the tweeter and the face plate looks plain. The Elac tweeter had four bolts surrounding the dome and the name TDL embossed in the front plate. So maybe these two models had some drivers from a different manufacturer. By the way the 'M' stands for metal if we guessed that already.
The T-Line 3 has a 25mm Elac sourced and TDL marked tweeter with 3 screws around the dome too. This one of the last models before John Wrights deathIts very possible, but the later Elac 25DT, like the ones in my 0.75m and on the studio 1m did have three bolts around the dome. But, as you say, they still had the TDL logo embossed on the plate.
