Also, wouldn't the oval shape lead to a higher Active Radiating Factor versus the circular drivers? A 4"x6" oval would be like squashing down a 5" driver.

I'm just guessing here, but isn't that a benefit, like going from a bunch of round tweeters to ribbon? Basically smashing a circle down to get a closer C to C figure.
