Interesting. A friend did that decades ago with Dynaco A25s but he did it putting the speakers horizontally to make 2 line sources, one of woofer/mids and one of tweeters sort of like the Pipedreams speakers many years later which he was one of the designers. This format will produce nicer interference affects between drivers and there is no way to get rid of theses affects, just to minimize them. I'd add that years later he believed that a line source should be much longer than just the four driver arrays to really get all the line source benefits.But, f course I forgot the KEFs are concentric drivers so the above only is meaningful for conventional speakers. However another of the Pipedreams designers has since designed a line source where the tweeters are directly in front of the main drivers, concentric but not as well integrated as the LS50 and the system works quite well.
