The more I listen, the more I realize that I'm part of teh group that's supper sensitive to time and phase correct speakers. I'm talking true time and phase correct and that means the whole system.
It's more expensive to make a speaker this way and the crossover isn't cheap, nor is it easy to do correctly. There are only a handful of speaker who are built this way, but when you hear it set up properly, you get the emotion that is often times absent (to my ears) in many of the 150k plus speakers out there. Almost like the OLD tube vs SS deal. I had owned tubes only since the mid 70's until I found some SS companies that were neither tube nor SS. again, just my take.
