That is correct (although Rockwool per se is not ruled out since there are different types of Rockwool, and some works very well depending on depth). It is a stubborn misconception that very dense wool is best suited for thick velocity based absorbers. The figure of interest for wool used as...

Se my post above. ;)

Yes, exceptions will always exist, but since most "normal" nearfiled 2-way monitors use 4th order LR filters (drivers in phase i o w), and often have the drivers signal aligned (physically or delayed), and often tuned to have the best (most linear) response on the acoustic axis (that will...

Normally, the acoustic axis originates from the point exactly in-between the tweeter and woofer (assuming normal 2-way design)...

SBIR calculations can be a brain twister indeed, and often subject for confusion (thinking of the big SBIR-thread on Gearslutz, I actually found the excel sheet I put together very useful). Sorry to hear about the flooding problems, nothing serious I hope.

The only reason except budget and possibly practical placement restrictions *, to deliberately restrict the low frequency response of a monitor system, is if you know that you have low frequency issues in your room that you for some reason cannot treat, and instead choose a speaker that won´t...

Both can work. It's the flow resistivity in conjunction with depth that determines what is best suited for a given scenario and need: Multi-layer Absorber Calculator
