4Hz is nothing. Easily EQ'd.

of doubling M3s - something that no one would likely ever do in practice.
On the other hand, I think that lowering the bass capability from 32 hz down to 24 hz as with my U1s is meaningful. It may only be 8 hz, but that is nearly half the bottom octave!
Along with obviating the need to compromise the full range signal with active EQ.
I was using YOUR arbitrary (disparate) configuration of an M3 to an M1. 28Hz to 32Hz (4Hz) differential....if I read the SoundLab webpage correctly.

Only 2.2db EQ required to move the M3 4Hz lower. EQ like that can be done easily at line-level passively. No active EQ required.
But, obviously a person is purchasing other capabilities besides this measly 4Hz if selecting the M1 over the M3.
The M1 would have fully 5db more SPL capability than the M3......or the same SPL capability but with lower distortion.....all other things being equal.
Whether that's worth the extra $13k, I don't know. :)

Let's return to your initial contribution to this thread following my observation to hahax. Why would anyone spend the money to do as you suggested? They most likely wouldn't given the investment.

I'm delighted you understand that.

Exactly the point of my last post.
I wasn't suggesting anyone spend money. It was an obvious hypothetical. I thought that was....obvious. (To everybody but you I guess.)
But anyway, we agree! Oh my goodness. I'm stupendously excited.
Dave.
It was an obvious hypothetical.
Obvious? One that would never be used?
But anyway, we agree!
Cool!
More panel area using examples that folks actually choose delivers:
1. Lower frequency response
2. Lower distortion
3. Wider directivity
4. Improved vertical image size
5. Obviates active equalization which sacrifices transparency.
