I did notice in the X-Over schematic by Wayne it mentions that this resistor R3 is "Mounted off board". Is this due to heat or something?

The R3 Zobel resistor we provide in the kits is packaged in a large aluminum block which serves both as a heat sink dissipator and as a mounting block. Our crossover PCB has a connector for this resistor, which is mounted off-board. We mount the crossover and Zobel resistor on the inside of the cabinet, directly on the bottom using a gasket to prevent vibration.
