Hi Pete! Thanks for the welcome, I'm glad to be back!
Your measured plot doesn't look too bad at all, especially considering you're at 3 dB/div.
Just to see what they're capable of, I'd experiment with pulling them out a little further from the back- any chance of some rear wall damping to kill some of the back wave in the upper midrange/lower highs? This may smooth things out further and sharpen up the imaging. Of course, I realize my reputation as "Mr Speakers out in the middle of the room" does tend to precede me.
I'm jealous that you've got your RD50's already. But hopefully I won't be too far behind you. It depends on how many nickels and dimes I have left over paying bills at the middle of the month.
BTW, where did you by the OW703 fiberglass? I've been looking for a local source in Northern CA. It's good stuff for acoustics work.
Keep us posted!
Regards,
Jon
