Compression Horns for Far field listening


I have a interest in makinga  2 way, with a  FR 8 inch and sittinga  TI Horn compression midtweeter on top, SEller mentioned something about the TI horn is better for far field listening.
My room is 10x12, 
Is the compression Horn a good choice in that size room or should i stay with dome style tweeter.
The seller does not speak good english, what i think he is trying to get across is that his TI horn may not be ideal match for a  small room acoustics.
Anyone have experience with TI Horns can chime in please.
The TI Horn will sit on top of a  8 inch Full Range. 
Is this considered a  2 way??

The exotic dealer in my area, Deja Vu Audio, makes custom designed systems, including systems built around full range drivers.  Quite often, the full range driver is utilized full range (i.e., no low-pass crossover network feeding the driver) with a tweeter that comes in way on top 5 to 10 kHz crossover points (typically first-order crossover and an L-pad attenuator).  I've heard several of the full range systems before and after the tweeter is added; I always prefer them with the tweeter.  The tweeter does not act so much as to add high frequency content, rather, it seems to smooth out the frequency response and make the full range driver seem less peaky and harsh.
