While the 1+1s are truly full range, the SPECTRA series is not. They attempted to address the beaming by electrically isolating the HF content to a narrow strip of one of the panels. No longer were all frequencies delivered by all of the panel area. They became effective two-way speakers.

I know this but it is STILL a single panel...not separate drivers...therefore it is still a single full range driver.

The driver that has the highs isolated also does the full range...the second panel does mids and bass only.

...therefore it is still a single full range driver.

Except of course when you listen to it nearfield.

  No, this is not correct. The part of the speaker doing high frequencies is ALSO doing everything else...it is the rest of the panel that is not doing highs or mids.

    Not all of the panel area is running full range. There are no highs coming out of 75-80% of the panel area depending upon configuration.
    
    Unlike designs that run truly full range across 100% of panel area, that requires some distance for optimum blending.

      No, but the area where there are highs is running full range.
