kookytalk ? concerning series/parallel wiring

Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

24.176.253.107

i was thinking about how important short signalpath length is and started thinking about line-arrays and their series/parallel wiring schemes.
please correct me if i am wrong.........but from what i understand.......if i wire 2 identical drivers in series then the signal has to go through a very long length of wire in the first driver -- the voicecoil -- before it gets to the second and later drivers voicecoil(s).
and then also the wire-wound inductor(s) of the xover are going to add another huge length(s) of wire again.
isnt this going to time smear the signal going to these drivers ?
or can the human ear/brain even perceive such a smear ?
seems like you would want to wire everything in parallel with equal lengths of wire to each driver.
seems like it would present a more stable load to the amp because the impedence induced/frequency dynamics would be more coherent/cohesive ?
or is this just kookytalk ?
thanks
