#41 Pitt & Giblin Flare: A$12,760/pair Pitt & Giblin eBay
Pros: A strong 0.808 listening-window smoothness score, one of the best in this batch, from a compact 2-way active monitor pairing an 8” mid-bass driver with a compression tweeter on a large cast-bronze waveguide. Reaches a -3dB extension of 37Hz with fully digital DSP crossover and auto on/off.
Cons: Sound-power smoothness is the weakest of any speaker in this batch (0.231), meaning off-axis response is less controlled than the on-axis measurement suggests. Coverage from independent audio press is thin, mostly press-release reposts rather than hands-on reviews.
How it compares: Just above it: JBL 306P MKII - $12362 cheaper. Just below it: Presonus Eris Studio 8 - $12298 cheaper.
