Yes indeed, however 2 arranged stacked speakers that are pretty well identical, represent a great opportunity to get a bigger sound.
Where another amp like 2x stereo 303 , or 306 are used there are then amplifier channels to cater for this different but beneficial arrangement.
If we look at dispersion from speakers - the ESL57 by Quad is a great model to get ideas from, we see the middle of the speaker is the treble panel and
two bass panels per side are used. It is no coincidence the Gale 401 also copied this same idea with 8 inch acoustic suspension drivers either end and
a Peerless midrange and Celestion tweeter in the middle. Move ahead many years and MBL use the same principle, using moving magnet rather than
moving coil drivers. Hence a stacking arrangement like using JR149 should try tweeters facing each other and bass drivers either end... well that's the theory.
