I thought about mentioning padding in my last post, but kinda figured you knew to pad the mids to match. I was going to suggest an 8Ω resistor in shunt across the driver with a 4Ω series resistor in front. But that might be a smidge too much, might be better with a garden variety 8Ω L-Pad. The adjustable L-Pad would give you some flexibility.

I'd be careful using a high-pass cap with a series resistor, because that might make a peak in the mids. Depends on the values. But even if they were right, the series cap limits overlap down low, which prevents you from taking advantage of mode smoothing. Got any ol' L-Pads lying around?
