2 1/2 way speaker?

Thanks Eric.
jond, thanks, the Spendor is the A5r. I have owned Spendors before and I would like to give these a try.

Normally, the two drivers are the same, but they cover different frequency ranges, as explained above, i.e. one of the two is rolled off earlier than the other.  So it's not a true 3-way, and not a true 2-way.  Hence....

You have three drivers in D’Appolito arrangement, where tweeter is in the middle and top and bottom drivers are the same "usually" and handle the same bass to 900hz. But the top driver also goes out to 3.2khz, and from there the tweeter takes over.

Here if you understand it, is a xover circuit for a 2.5 way speaker using 4th order HP on the tweeter 2nd order LP on the top mid/bass and 1st order LP on the lower bass https://ibb.co/r5zYyKs

Thanks for the information!
