How did / do you go about choosing crossover points, other than by listening and experimenting? (e.g. the 800Hz point). |

Actually I did not choose crossover points in my text above but just arbitrary dropped the numbers to give an idea. There was plenty say about crossover point in past at my site, do some search.

On the other hand, it seems like it would take more to "voice" the system with having to chase crossover points twice. Horns just seem by nature to work better narrow band-width, and good sound would seem easier to come by with not forcing the horn to sing out of it's range. |

I am sorry, I do not undusted what it would mean. You have now some kind full-range speaker, right? So, make a MF horn for instance and use it with your full-range speaker, gradually introducing more channels and to see how it works all together.
