    I would use vertical directivity to your advantage, and just be able to pivot the tweeter so you can aim it at your primary listening position. You are never going to get it to sum properly through the crossover point no mater where you put it. There will always be some ripples in the response. A 2405 would be just the ticket as long as you are not going for 20k plus.

    cant agree with that with fir filtering(very high order more the 8th) and digital delay i can sum them wherever i want....
    and i can eq it how i want and dont make any changes to phase.
    with filtering thre is almost no point where drivers works together.

    FIR breakwall filters will be of no help there: the phase might measure flat through the crossover when measured exactly after having properly configured the delay, but move you mic 5cm and measure again...

    That would be subjective for sure. Looks kind of like a washer and dryer!

    Cost is a poor measure of quality. In the world of high end audio there is no end to how much people may pay for some of the silliest things out there.

    I'll agree with you,considering many hifi lovers have spent lots of money only on cables in China,i think this is one kind of sickness
