I built the speakers

I created the crossover and yes it is a 4th order LR and therefore the tweeter is 180 degrees out of phase with the mids. That is why I was shocked to hear a difference. I carefully phased everything when I switched. The effect wasn't there on everything but, on the few very good classical recordings that had sounded a little funny, they sounded better. I am not sure louder is the right word, tighter and more natural in that it was sudden response to drums and horns rather than leaden response.
