RE: Tympani 1-D, IIIa tweeter and custom foil mids using DCX2496

The I guess what you would be doing while the III bass panels are out at magnepan is using the T ID tweeter for the top end. In the original T-ID the XO was 1st order at 1khz. The tweeter is not as good as the ribbon by any stretch, So I am thinking that you can move your IIIa tweeter to the side of the T-1D tweeter panel by screwing the hinges into it the same way the ribbons are hooked up to your frame. Then you can cross the ribbon tweeter over at 4-5khz. The T-1D tweeter would then be used as a midrange. You can experiment a little to see if the T-1D tweeter can handle a wee bit more lower freq duties.

If the T-1D tweeter panel is not functional then you can still run the bass panels up to 2.5khz and use the ribbons above that. The mids will be thicker than you might want but still fairly good.
