Subwoofer on Top???

The second part, the "sub" thing is, It's probably doing more than just SUB bass duty, Above 60-100hz things start getting pretty directional..

Third, you really don't want all the vibrating and such ON the monitor cabinet.. Tweeters and mids, really don't like it, The reason I separate the two. 300 hz and down are separate cabinets, actually two separate cabinets 15-100 hz and down and 100-300 in a band pass, different enclosures. Very little vibration on the monitor section because of it..

I'm all for raising it, as a matter of fact I encourage that. Just not on top of a monitor cabinet... The other way around, maybe, BUT I'm still in favor of separate boxes if you can. It eliminates the back side of the driver being influenced by other drivers in the cabinet, even though it is in a separate chamber. You only have to deal with the front, and phase plugs will do the that for bass drivers.
A VERY narrow tapered baffles will take care of,  Mids and highs
