The port resonance is unfortunate. Otherwise this is another tiny speaker Amir didn't like. Surprise! Small speakers don't work for him in his big room.
These are insensitive. A real 80dB because of the 85dB woofer and then having BSC applied.
There's nothing wrong with the design except it's got limited output capability and that troublesome port resonance.
The tweeter here doesn't really struggle at 96dB either. It's a gentle rise of 2nd order at a completely inaudible level and frequency range. Struggling is when the 3rd, 4th and 5th shoot up dramatically. Lots of tweeters these days are actually designed to favour having high amounts of 2nd order but very low of the other orders.
If you plug the ports then the only EQ you'd want to apply is the one for your room mode. How is this a bad design? It would literally need zero EQ in a system with subwoofers and blocked ports. This is the only way you'd ever be happy with them in that huge room anyway.
I once again ask that Amir use small speakers in a small, 3*3 meter or so, room and at volumes they were designed for. You're constantly slamming small speakers for having relatively little bass and falling to bits at loud volumes...well what a surprise! They weren't designed for this. Stop using them in a way that they would never be purchased for.
