If you were to build a WMTMW, would you feel it's more "accurate" than an MTMWW, considering that every driver is equally spaced on the vertical plane?
If you don't, how would you feel about an MTMWW with the woofers mounted side to side, back to back, like in the Audio Physic speakers?
The reason I'm asking is - I'm completely undecided between a huge WMTMW tower (probably 5 feet tall or so), or a slim MTMWW using the RS125, RS225 and RS28, with the RS225 firing side to side. But I don't know about bass accuracy. And whether how high I can get away with while crossing over the 225's.
I'd believe I could go up to 180 ~ 220 Hz with the 225s. But how should I design the crossover on the 225s? Because they'll be firing 90° away from the listeners, is there any specific design criteria? Is 200 Hz a good frequency when using sideway drivers? As you may imagine, I'm partial to a slim, sealed MTMWW tower. But I'm not willing to sacrifice sound quality because of design criteria.
