Here is an example on how to use GOTO 505TT driver.  Use the GOTO S150 horn and crossover at 200Hz to 1kHz.  If you like to use other type of horn and crossover point, you are on your own.  Maybe good or maybe not but that is your choice.  Yes.  You are correct, every room will be different but the basic setup and crossover of the GOTO SG505TT + GOTO S150 horn will be the same. 

For GOTO SG370, use GOTO S600 horn and crossover from 1kHz to 5kHz.
For GOTO SG160, use built0in GOTO S3000 horn and crossover from 5kHz and up.

Use 1st order with active crossover.  Use 2nd order with passive crossover.

Mingsu, sorry, but someone has to inform you that just having GOTO (actually no matter what kind of brand) drivers, loaded in “proper” horns doesn’t mean absolutely nothing, if they are not arranged in space to work as a whole acoustic system. The concept behind the system strategy is much more important than the type of the drivers, and it determines more than 80% of the end result. From what I have seen across the internet, it seems most of the goto “systems” are nothing more and nothing less than just a pile of brainlessly arranged drivers loaded in horns.
You know it is very easy to build an imaginary world around you, with different physical laws, with different gravity, with different colored sky, and to feel very comfortable inside it, but what it has to do with the reality?
I have never seen “plans” of goto “recommended” acoustic system and I suggest you to find for yourself why it is so…

Best regards,
