[QUOTE="Gary S, post: 3317759, member: 568291"] - Say it's not so. You don't know what you are missing if you have never tried kicks. The point source theory is bunk. Even if the tweeter is located in the middle of the voice coil of the midbass driver, the passive crossover in most cases will make the drivers out of phase. Anyway, as long as you keep the tweeter close to the mid, or keep the driver distance ratios to listener close, all that is needed is the tweeter attenuator to match levels. I forget what the speaker designers usually recommend for maximum tweeter mounting distance from the mid, but I'm betting that as long as you stay close to or less than inter-aural spacing, around 7 inches or less, and just match levels, anything else is probably overkill.
