So there would be xover effects between those two drivers.

I've listened to a lot of systems with a ribbon added with just a cap on it, takes a lot of adjusting to get right.

IMO&E it is be better to use 'matching' 1st order slopes HP and LP. This can often require that the two 'calculated f3 points' are not the same. So that they are acoustically.

If you have a spare sweet amp, and can build a PLL 1st order on the input of the main amp and the new tweeter amp these should sound far more transparent than any $$$$$$$$ spkr level cap HP and LP coil.

Even if you used a standard MF R and a decent commercial tef or styro.

I only really liked the T1 when there was a stand-subwoofer under each mini.
