So I've been reading The Loud Speaker Cookbook and am confused on the section about XO group delay. The author mentions that a LR-2 XO has a flat group delay yet the graph he refers to starts flat then has a negative slope in the XO region and returns back to flat. What am I missing here?
Also, say a XO has a flat group delay albeit with a non-zero magnitude, does this mean that essentially the drivers are in-phase but one is lagging the other? If so, this is bad and I would think the only way to correct this is to offset the horizontal driver distances (so that leading (in time) driver's voice coil sits farther back).
