subwoofers and panels don't mix


i have yet to experience a subwoofer that mated well with a panel speaker--ribbon, stat and planar magnetic.

each time i have heard a combination of a cone driver with a panel it sounds like two speakers. the blend is not seamless.

can anything be done to make the transition from cone to panel sound like a one speaker system, rather than reveal 2 different driver types ?

Stereo subs are the best and crossing them over where the mains leave off is a must. Having them in the same plane as the midrange driver panel and facing forward will also increase the seemlessness. Placing the subs on a support platform also improves the definition.
