I wish! If I couldn't get the Synergy's drivers, I'd have to search for a close enough replacement, whether already with a sealed back or one I can turn into a BP unit to emulate it.
My limited experience with Klipschorns has been that they sounded no better to me overall in their way than the Karlson did, so both are very BW limited alignments as is IMO, but I haven't auditioned either in decades, so at least with the Klipschorn I'd like to think that they have been audibly improved to better meet the needs of the wider BW source material available today. For sure, I'd want the mid-horn to cover down to ~220-250 Hz to minimize any audible delay between the two, not to mention put it in ~the center of its mid-band sensitivity, so the original Unity's recommended 300 Hz XO is a bit high, though for HIFI/HT apps it may be acceptable. Only one way to know for sure though.
