In Reply to: The range of the human voice, where the human ear is most sensitive . . . posted by Brian H P on March 27, 2015 at 10:21:24:
ideally a wide midrange driver response would be ideal. But as with most things in audio the compromise is directivity. The three four and five designs are required to keep the drivers from operating at frequencies where thereoff axis energies become uneven. Toole, Linkwitz and many others in subjective testing believe this is more critical than breaking up the spatial origination point of the signal.
Two arguments support this: one, by the pressure variations reach the ear the diffractions reflections and interference between left and right signals create such an irregular time and frequency response that the anomalies of a properly designed crossover at any frequency are less significant. Two,the are a host of very well accepted loudspeakers that do use this technique to achieve excellent sound.
In alternative argument there are speakers, planars,line source,high efficiency and low efficiency full range systems that also perform excellently Without optimum directivity
