I do not feel that fundamental range has to be that wide. It for sure could be if it is your objective and I am sure you have your reasons.
For now I have only theoretical reasons.If to consider frequency range of the orchestra, we have highest levels in 500-1000Hz range and outside 250-4000Hz range levels drop 10db/octave.All major tones of most of the instruments are also in this range.So, the idea to keep this range as a whole without overlaying by different drivers looks very reasonable.When crossing at 1000Hz around this frequency we have two drivers playing same note of instrument which means we have 2 instruments instead of one.Outside 250-4000 range we have only harmonics and duplicating them is not a big problem, especially at -10db level.That is why my concept for now is to try to get this range as a whole.
