Coherency between drivers matters to avoid image shift of notes that span the crossover region. Most speakers that get this right will disappear if placed properly with respect to the listening position. The most impressive demonstration of this for me was with a pair of Harbeth M 40.2. You could not detect a single note, artifact or sound localized to the speaker. Every sound came from behind them as if on a 3-D virtual sound stage. The key is to have lots of room behind the speakers, e.g. 5-6 feet if possible.
