The Battle of 8's: Adam A8X vs Yamaha HS8 vs Hafler TRM8

Recorded using Rode NT1-A and the Zoom F8.

This test is only indented for noticing the differences, comparison, and relation between those 3 speakers that were recorded with the same mic in the same position, and the same acoustic conditions.

This comparison is not intended to represent true sound of the speakers as true sound is affected by the mic coloration as well as the room coloration.
True sound may vary depending of the room acoustics and lots of other stuff and you already know all of this.

I think the test came out well and the differences are quite noticeable.
I know there is already bunch of HS8 vs A8X tests out there, but there isn't one compared to Hafler's. That's why I've decided to use this opportunity while i have them all here, to make this test and compare them to the two of most known speakers which most people heard and can relate to.
I hear that the sound of Hafler's is a lot closer to Yamaha's then to A8X which lacks the mids.
Haflers are even more mid oriented than this.
I know that most of you will not like this because it's not the flat test, but please note that the Hafler is EQed on the switches behind. I tried to match the sound of the HS8 with it and i think it's pretty close.
