I have found that 8th order X/O works best with them and I cross at 90Hz these days.  4th order is ok but you get minor colourations and some bleed through that just aren't a distraction on 8th order. The bass horn takes over form there and it gels very well for me. I also found them unusable in an average UK sized room  without  a couple of PEQ corrections to fix room modes / tune to my taste.  Once done, the bass weight, speed / impact and depth are to my liking.

Hm, the 8th order high-pass X/O mixed with low pass upper bass horn? This is very strange. I do not know the taped horn’s upper knee character but from what you do, suffocating the uppperbass’s upper bass it does not sound that taped horn is too pretty.
