The behaviour breaks down about 5kHz because you are now just using the

I thought the annuli were fed from a delay line rather than a crossover....


They are. Jim is referring to the fact that the central portion
doesn't get any smaller with rising frequency, and at 5kHz its size is
starting to become appreciable.
