Fair enough.

Please, do not feel that I accuse you that you are not willing to do something “more evolve”. That is perfectly fine; I just try to recommend you to think about a solution that would be coordinated with the rest of efforts. 

So, if I were in your place I would probably live everything as you have now but just high-pas the yellow driver at let say 200-250Hz (400Hz with over-second order will be the best) and put two cheap subwoofers next to the Lamhorns. This might or might not produce to you the sound that you want but it will unload lower octave from the yellow driver and it would give you an illustration how it might perform if it is not stressed. It is very possible that your IDH PX-25 SET will go very fine in there and then you will just realized that you need a dedicated LF solution. Do not forget to take notes and literally write to yourself what sonic changes you experience and what sonic problems you recognize.

Actually, I would prefer moving towards a more permanent solution (for practical, and frankly, economic reasons); and if that means moving away from the single driver (yellow cone), so be it... Now if having the subs in place would be also useful with a different speaker configuration, perhaps adding them now may be a good place to start?... about the crossover (200-250 Hz), would that be built-in to the (self-powered?) subs? (i.e., line out to sub, and from there, HP filtered to to the amp)... But perhaps adding subs would be overkill (or throw-away) if I move away from the "yellow cones"?... BTW, what is "IDH"?... As for taking notes: You bet!, I'm already taking notes!
