Your ears are not lying to you either.
The signal from a crossover naturally has the hf emerge first, then the mids and last the lowest frequency range.
To make a multi-way speaker appear on axis to have a single arrival time over a broad frequency range, requires DSP trickery or like we do, off set the drivers front to back in a complementary way which compensates for the inherent phase shift / time delay normal crossovers produce.
