Romy!

Put on an engineer hat!

Time-aligned is an impossible task from my point of view.  How can one perfectly time align different drivers?  Align to what precision? mm, inch, cm or ft?  5%, 10%, 30% time align? Align to the tip of the cone or middle of the cone or the end of the cone?  Or to the beginnng of the throat entrance or the end of phase plug? 

In my view, if one can do it and arrange all drivers on a same vertical plane, it is better but if not, one should not worry too much about time align and should just enjoy.

Again!  Since I start working with GOTO 4 years ago, they have never recommended to use anyhting more than 2nd order - always 1st order with active crossover and 2nd order with passive crossover.
