I think "INMATE51" said it well!
Sadly, that may already be the situation.
Additionally, unless one is using a separate amp for each set of stereo speakers it will result in distortions of an over-driven amplifier.
It was I who spoke of my stacked AR-LST on "CSP' that surely inspired many folks to attempt the same configuration of stacking. But, I use two separate stereo amplifiers of exceptionally high power and use 'stacked' AR-LST speakers that have multiples of midranges and tweeters thus allowing for a better and balanced sound.
The AR-3 and AR-3a's don't and in-turn facilitate a 'bass-heavy' response.
I tried this years ago with four AR-3a's and the sound was less than acceptable.
