Finishing with the simulations I continued with building the filters and mounting the ribbon tweeters in the already built speakers.
For all inductors I used cylindric ferrite cores so I can have low DC resistance. This is subject with many pros and cons so I will not go into details. All components are mounted on peace of laminate flooring (remaining from the JX92 initial stands) and additionally secured by cable ties and some glue. I hope all that will keep the components in place and there will be no problems.
With the help of my drill and jigsaw I made the necessary cuttings for the new drivers.
I used T-nuts and bolts (M4 this time) with the right colour to mount the drivers. I already come across problems with ribbon tweeters in the same volume as the woofer and I was not able to put mine in separate volume, I used silicone to seal the back of the RT1.3 drivers. If the drivers are not sealed well enough some air pushed by the woofer starts to move through them, which causes audible sound distortion. It is not impossible that this causes damage to the tweeters.
This is all for now. I hope to be able to finish the project soon.
