Robin, what you say about shifting your head while listening is very interesting in the context of this thread, since I happen to know that one of Haralnov's primary goals is the elimination of the tweeter (or any driver, for that matter) as a "source of sound". I can also say that putting the working parts of his thinking into play has resulted in sound that varies little around quite a large "listening area", if this is of interest to you.
As for the "phase issues", I confess that I tend to give only passing acknowledgement to these "principals" as I pursue "Better Sound" via hardware, including extended HF. However, I have said before (and I say again now) that "add-on tweeter" is an oxymoron, whether it is phase or topology, or whatever that "causes" the problems. Based on experience, until I hear otherwise, there is no doubt in my mind that elaborate networks are best avoided, including at "UHF"; and it has also proven true that running a "suitable" "tweeter" up sounds better than running a "super tweeter" down, albeit there must be "sufficient" overlap.
BTW, of course no one who reads these posts is a Moron! ;>
