When the BBC was still designing their own monitor speakers they used 12 inch woofers and 8 inch mids. To enlarge the horizontal response they slot loaded the drivers with vertical slots giving the drivers te horizontal dispersion of the slots. The early LS5/8 speakers, the 1st to use polypropylene drivers, used a slot loaded 12 inch woofer crossed over to a 1 1/4 inch Audax tweeter at about 1800 Hz although I believe they dropped the slot in later versions.
