      fixing those and adding some holes to mount the guide to the tweet should be all it takes for a
      good fit, more soon. Click image for larger version

        WARNING! I went to remove the Peerless DA25TX faceplate and the VC/Dome "carrier" seems to be glued to the faceplate,
        meaning the V.C. and everything (including the silly wires that route through the "heatsink") I did not damage
        anything but it would not be hard. Unfortunately all mods will have to be done to the WG to make this
        work, it should not be a problem, but being able to take the faceplate off (leaving the dome in place).
        Would have made for a better install. More to come.

        Guess xmax's age.

        My guess: 15. His grammar is passable. His trolling is good.

            Found some more work for you to do. This looks pretty amazing:
            Peerless DA32TX00-08 1-1/4" Corundum Dome TweeterPeerless designed the DA32TX00-08 1-1/4" corundum dome tweeters for both hi-fi and professional applications. With their unique material and design enhancements, these tweeters are built for industry-leading performance and reliability. Corundum, one of natured hardest substances (9 out of 10 on the MOHS hardness scale), is extremely rigid with excellent damping which pushes any dome resonance well outside of the audible range keeping frequency response flat to 22,000 Hz and beyond. The DA32TX00-08 incorporates a unique rear chamber that lowers the resonant frequency and serves as a heatsink for improved power handling and negligible power compression. The massive FEA optimized underhung motor assembly provides incredible control for impressive dynamics, and includes a thick copper cap on the pole piece for lower inductance with minimal distortion. In addition, the optional metal grill (held in place magnetically) protects the fragile dome from foreign objects and curious fingers. Capable of handling crossover frequencies as low as 1,200 Hz, the DA32TX00-08 will present outstanding performance in almost any 2 or 3-way speaker designs.

                Yeah, and I've changed my mind which pair I'm getting. I'll get the 32mm instead.

                  Yup, these are mine, they both use the SB29RDNC tweet, the big "Reactor" uses the 3" Volt mid, 12" "Magnum" woofer and rear loaded
                  18" Ultimax. The smaller "SixTen" uses a TB mid-bass and rear loaded RSS265HF sub.
                  Guess xmax's age.

                      Do you already have a design in mind? Or what drivers you're going to mate with it?

                        My pending design called 'Wield' with the TB W8-2096S underhung woofer, and an RSS265-PR, in about 20 ltrs.

                        Later,
