That link works.
Mostly I learned that this is a neat toy: https://www.klippel.de/products/rd-system/modules/nfs-near-field-scanner.html
Although the reviewers claim that this allows measurements more accurate than those in an anechoic chamber seems a bit disingenuous. What if you put one of these measuring devices in an anechoic chamber! What then Mr Reviewer! :D I do get what they mean though, the testing is more "real world" for some set of parameters.
The problem I always find with such a scientific approach to audio stuff is that the microphones used in testing represent an ideal ear, and whilst the results of the tests can be said to be indicative if other tests are performed the same way... they still don't reflect that each ear and brain is individual, so it always comes down to personal experience.
That said... the review does suggest it's going to be a shit experience for all :D
