Arguments for Tweeters on the Outside
It’s easier for our sense of hearing to place higher-pitched sounds than lower-pitched sounds. Low-pitched sounds are less directional.
This is why people often have speaker for very low frequencies – a sub-woofer – rather than two. You can’t really tell where very low frequency sound is coming from so one speaker will often do the job.
This should mean that placing the tweeters on the outside would produce the best stereo separation, and result in the most faithful stereo image.
This is because your ears place the higher-pitched sounds much more precisely than the lower-pitched sound coming from the mid/woofer speakers located on the inside.
That’s the theory anyway.
