If I'm missing something, I'd be interested to hear about it.

No, it's nothing to do with resistance, it to do with the fact that
each speaker can be moving at different speeds and directions. From
this there is a chance that the woofer can send distortion up the
cable and interfere with the tweeter frequencies.

Are you talking about back EMF from one driver affecting the signal going to
the other driver? (Presumably, that from the bass driver is of greater
concern due to it being rather higher power.)

Yes, that's exactly it.

Anyway, that's the last I'm saying on the matter. It's obvious that many
can't tell somebody they think they're wrong without being insulting
about it. No wonder they say conversation is dead.

I'f I'd said the same thing to any of them face to face, I'll bet their
responses would have been different. I don't mind if I'm wrong, but
please tell me I'm wrong, and *why* you think I am, in a more
constructive way. As it is, the people that don't know, still don't know
any better.
