Good job!

What you have done with 2 SWs is clearly fine. However, excellent results can be obtained using only 1 SW. A 24 dB./octave Linkwitz/Riley crossover "cornering" low enough and correct enclosure placement get the job done. As has been hinted, spatial cues have to be kept out of the single SW.

BTW, deep bass on LPs is summed to mono, in order to limit stylus excursion in the vertical plane.
