the reversed mid-driver

77.12.234.103

can´t help it playing around with filter slopes to see if that reversed mid-driver can be forced to behave otherwise.
I´m a strong proponent of the magnepan stock slopes, but I´ve now tried a few settings with the mid-driver in same phase as the bass and ribbon, but all other soundstage issues aside, the bass just gets mudded and un-precise.
...and then a little thought came to my mind :

I wonder if the mid-driver needs to be reversed to counter-control the amplitude of the bass driver ?
does that make any sense ?

after all we know that the mylar hardly has any damping on its own and the better / lower the amplifiers output impedance, the firmer "grip". could the mid-driver be a part of that equation ?

any thoughts on this ?

kind regards
