Awesome build!

Just a couple of observations-

You had mentioned the six pi Corner horn being smaller than the seven pi.
I believe it is the other way around, with the six pi tuned to about 1/2 an octave lower.

As far as the two pi's lacking in punch.
It has been my experience that woofers (especially high sensitivity) will loosen up and break-in, improving in just that range (mid bass).
My four pi's slowly broke in, increasing in the mid bass.

Experience also tells me that amplifier topology also has a part to play in this.

I used an Adcom 555, with moderate punch.
Then a set 300 b with a bit less punch.
Now two medium size mono blocks using Kt 88 tubes, they pretty much punch you in the face.

Ymmv.
