I think that's wishful thinking there X. That TB driver is a great little unit but it eats watts for breakfast. I have only been able to use it with it's own amp. A standard 2 way is a tough go. Hatemii might need to consider a plate amp and bi-amp the system.
Are you saying the 84dB at 1watt spec is overly generous? 2.83v for 4ohm driver is 2 watts. 2 watts doesn't get 87dB is what you are saying then?
30 deg off axis was also my recommendation for listening to the PS95, and a lot o people picked it, so it must have sounded decent to many people.

PS95 at 30 deg off axis is the green line in the plot below:

That would work if the listening spot would be set. In my case it is not and I'm actually prety much on axis on the right speaker.
The fact that the treble is clear even to our kitchen which is 180deg off axis and partially behind a wall from the speakers tells something about the situation.

Nice!!! Must sound very very convincing with percussions.
Can you show the measured XO plot (LF, HF, combined)? 1.42ms is the Harsch XO delay is for 350Hz and assuming there is no acoustic centers offset between the woofer and tweeter. But that is typically 10mm to 25mm depending on how deep the basket and whether the VC is under or overhung. You may need to delay an additional 0.04 to 0.06ms. It's easy enough to try to see if the tweak can make the step response even better.

I will make some measurements tomorrow.
On some material it sounds ok now but with some different there is still something that is not right. It might be due to the large difference in the sensitivity of the drivers. I guess I will have to listen some more when I get time.
