RE: A jump into the vintage (nostalgia) pool...

Stacking speakers produces comb filtering at upper frequencies. It can sound impressive in a way but it muddles sound in a subtle way. I once compared double Advents to an IMF Studio 2 speaker decades ago. The IMF was cleaner, more open more detailed and more focused. Then just for kicks we went to single Advents(we started with double Advents) and the single pair was cleaner, more open, more detailed and more focused than the double Advents. There was a shift in balance with double Advents to the lower frequencies and a seemingly wider sound stage due to the phase affects of the comb filtering.
