Iam too dumb, so I got my speakers built by a gentleman who was well regarded for his speaker builds. It was clearly conveyed that my room was small at 11 x 16.5 feet. And that it will be a near field setup with an equilateral triangle of 8.5 ft with the tweeters and ears. And i like the vocals to be at a realistic human height. So from what i understand, the crossover was built to give a coherent balance at the seated ear position. So even though the speakers are big 3 ways, I find them a joy to listen to, with very life like height and massive width. Whereas my other speakers, PMC twenty 26, sound disjointed like 3 different drivers doing their own thing at my same listening position.
