I also like the small diameter mid range drivers, should give good dispersion.

Unless of course, they push them beyond their optimum range as was commonly found in 70's era JBL monitors. Unfortunately, JBL is coy about the xover frequencies. Neither the data on the linked site nor on the JBL site itself divulged what those happened to be. All we get is: " Straight-Line Signal Path crossover network" - Whatever the heck that mumbo jumbo means.

The 4311 pushed it's 5" midrange to 6 kHz - which is a 2.25" wavelength. Then transitioned to a wide dispersion dome tweeter which resulted in a really funky image for instruments where the lower harmonics were shrunken as compared to the fundamentals and the upper harmonics rendered as wide as Kansas. :)
