Tweeter below mid-woofer

Has anyone found a shift in imaging with speakers that have the tweeter below the midwoofer than above.I sit about nine feet from my stand mounted left center right which are paradigm miniMK3's.I plan on buying PSB Bronze to get a little better bottom end.I was wondering about that tweeter being six or so inches below the bottom of the screen(front projector).As it is the sound image is below the screen.Thanx

It's quite evident for me since there's no perfect tweeter.

I've done experiments with different tweeters from different speakers(yes, driving only tweeters with my almost perfect musical hearing as a former musician) and lemme tell ya that every tweeter is dirty as hell and needs correction one way or another.

In terms of wave propagation to the listening position tweeter bellow the woofer DOES make sence since it compresses the tweeter's imperfections and makes on the cetrain distance a clear and nice natural sound believe it or not.

I care less about band information. I only care about tweeter's freequency band domain dominantely on piano notes.
