The midi range, not the tweeter, is the most important driver in a speaker.
Yes the Scan Rev looks likeav  awesome bass response,,But I am not into heavy bass. I need midarnge as all my muisc is classical, no bass guitar, no heavy drums. = as per OP, Midrange is the most important fq's in any speaker. SEAS wins out big ti...

Andy the W19/Graphene has a super low sensitivty, 85db,,so the W22 will have same,,,= rules out any dream ofa  845 amp. Thats the trade off, I miss out on the 845's dreamy liquid mesmerizing mids in chamber/light classical (= 845 can not reproduce...

Here is a Q for the board, The SEAS Trym is a 2 way, 87 db, yet rated a  better 8 ohms. Here is my Q.Will a  845 amp work under the load of a  low sensitive speaker ~~rated 87 db~~~ yet 8 ohms...IOW will the tube have issues with the impedance of ...

@ MikeLavigne Great post, summing things up ~~w/o bias, no distortion~~~I was not aware of the fq range numbers for voice/cello/piano/other important instrumentation, particular to classical muisc. For light classical (- nota  orch in full bloom) ...

@ Andy, yes the xover is critical. Which is why SEAS has engineered the xover for this Thor. The xover I have in my 2002ish Thors is the UPGRADE version,,which ain't saying much based on new technology since that time. in 2020, i will have madisou...

woke up in early hours and realized a  thought about the OP query. OK, Mids extremely important. Thats obvious. 90% of the muisc is in the  low mids- upper mids fq's,. Any old woffer can give low bass, and old tweet can give super highs. Its this ... 
The midi range, not the tweeter, is the most important driver in a speaker.
No, 100% disagree.  Every mid I've heard since early 70's i hated. I avoided all 3 ways with mid ranges past 40 yrs. I am sticking with  a  MTM, allowing the lower W18 to act in low fq.s the upper mid bass meeting the Millenium tweet which is real...
