I suspect that your negative views about on axis listening due to sensitivity to listening position must be to some narrow angle on axis frequency anomaly of the driver/horns you tried.
If you insist to use chromatic aberration as a working hypnosis!! in this context, it would have to be due to differences in frequency response of the horns in different directions, frequency responce deviations will effect phase response and thereby group delay, just as a crossover network.
But the tilted horn has no inherent disadvantage in this respect, if you dont like the frequency responce you can alter this with the crossover.
