Well - I for one am a horn guy. I really like the cone mid range sound and intellectually buy in to the Xover not being in such a critical frequency range. But when my ear hears them side by side the cone starts to sound a tad less dynamic and the brain says the sound is soft (in places).

I would take a shot at maybe a 500hz compression/horn as an alternative if I want to hit a bit of that lower freq with the mid. I do enjoy many variations of mid horns that Xover in the 500 - 800hz range, so I could probably be a 'registered' biased person...
