As I wrote, I own a pair of Fostex T90a and I am rather ambivalent on what to think.
Sure when The X-over is at 15k (1st order) they will sound way below that. But when you guys X-over at 30k, one must wonder how much is music, and how much is noise within the human heariing range (maximum 17khz when you are around middleaged).
Beond that, the CD-medium cuts of really hard everything above 22khz, so what kind of signal reaches the tweeters at those freqencies?

with no L-pad, and your horn tweeter in question is 6dB more sensitive that the rest of your speaker, then you are right in line at 15K and only 6dB below the rest of the speaker at 7.5K.
