You can just mount them to a railing the way I did and screw or staple the railings as you would the OEM drivers.

Thanks for the pics. I thought you had to increase the height of the midrange slot to accommodate all the Neos?
Got my new computer assembled, so I'm going to check out the Mini DSP -- can't try a crossover with only one amp (Emotiva is packed up ready to sell and the old Hafler is as well) but I got my new computer assembled and I want to try a bypass/DAC comparison to see how it sounds and whether it has enough headroom.
There was no need to take out material since the line of holes on the drivers fit in perfectly into the slot. On a TIVa you have extra length to the midrange so you can just put the railings in and probably pop out the entire stretch of the raised body of all the drivers in the line.
Wasn't there a discussion here of the need to lengthen the line to fit all the drivers in? I'll have to take the Neos upstairs and measure -- still moving stuff back in now that all the painting is done. But today I'm going to try to get audio from my newly-assembled HTPC and try the bypass experiment with the MiniDSP.
It is an issue with the TIV with 6 drivers but I found the fit of the radiating surface to be just right so stayed with that and put the plan for extending the slot on hold. The IVa has quite a bit longer midrange slot and should easily fit the entire body of the Neo8 drivers.
That is damping foam tape on the front of the drivers got caught on the sock material when I opened it to take the photo.
