Completely agree

Of course, one could argue that if a crossover point is high enough, or low enough, the second driver doesn't count.

In the HT system, I use smallish stats that need a pair of subs to provide adequate dynamic range. They are actively crossed below 80 hz which in *theory* should eliminate localization. I place them at room diagonals to minimize modes and use parametric EQ to flatten measured response.

But, they just don't sound truly as coherent as the Sound Labs used upstairs which need no augmentation. There is an audible seam in character.
