Aberyclark (Threads \| Answers \| This Thread) Maybe find a review of one somewhere that gives the frequency response like Sterephile does when they test a speaker. Duplicate their readout. Don't forget, any coloration's your own have would be added also, in this experiment.

Green's review of the Spendor 1/2 or Harbeth Compact 7 speakers. This should give you a pretty good idea of the British sound. You can find the reviews here: Spendor 1/2 Harbeth Compact 7
