Google up Nelson Pass' Kleinhorns And his necessary Massive Sub Assembly.
Good primer on what level of involvement it requires to get Lowthers /horns to produce a full spectrum sound.
There are Far simpler paths to good sounds.

I agree with you. It is a challenging intellectual exercise to get a single driver to cover such a wide bandwidth (i.e., 30 hz to 20 kHz). But as soon as you try to get the wide range driver to reproduce frequencies below 100 hz (using a multiorder crossover on the wide bandwidth driver, or you need to crossover over even higher), IM distortion increases exponentially.
Keep the wide bandwidth drivers to above 100 hz and find bass drivers for the rest. Of course, you can likely do better at a lower price point by using a separate midrange driver and tweeter. There are coherency issues that are challenging when trying to integrate more drivers, though.
