[QUOTE="MiniVanMan, post: 4184846, member: 573252"] It really depends on how the set is designed overall. So, mostly it comes down to the crossover. Since companies don't tell us how the crossovers are designed, we usually just have to go with trial and error. However, it is safe to assume that many sets in the price range you're looking at are designed to be played with the woofer in the door and the tweeter up high. Oh, and on-axis, off-axis is in relation to the listening position, not the position of the speakers. Yes, a tweeter can be off-axis from the mid, but when the term "off-axis" is used, it's in relation to how a speaker will sound when it's aimed at a particular angle away from the listening position. Here's a thread where I outline a little bit of what that all means. It's the 5th response in this thread.
