Some people are cool with higher sub xover points. I typically don't like them, but this woofer seems to have very low-amplitude distortion components, since it has that "disappearing" quality - so this technique might work better even for me than with many other woofers.
True. If you're enclosure is too small then peakiness is a huge problem. I've always found it better to leave the XO point high and EQ out a peak than to XO low and lose dynamics. But that's me. There other ways around that problem (notably using large midbass drivers with a lot of Xmax) so there's no one "right" way. Just tossing other ideas out there. Show some of th ekids the "old school" way we did it.
