What you say seems correct to me Mike. Most people are confused by Kimber's definition of Doppler distortion. He is not referring to the usual Doppler problem, which is caused when the relative motion of a speaker cone modulates a signal, and is minimized through multiple drivers and minimizing cone motion.As far as I understand, what he is saying is that there is a certain amount of Doppler interaction that we hear as natural, and when this distortion is artificially removed by a crossover circuit, the normal Doppler pattern is disrupted (distorted). We expect to hear some modulation of higher frequencies by lower, and vice versa. A single driver preserves this correct Doppler relationship, but it introduces its own, excessive, Doppler distortion due to cone flap. I don't think Kimber's circuit is trying to deal with cone flap, which is why he still uses more than one driver.
