RE: Tympani IVa active crossover.

Great idea, Steve - this will make your T-IVas sound a lot better. A further improvement could probably be had by redeveloping your mid/ribbon passive XOs with better-quality components.

I suggest you stick with the stock 18dB bass LP and 12dB mid HP slopes ... but with modified roll-off frequencies:
* bass LP @260Hz
* mid HP @530Hz.

However:
1. you will need to put some gain on the mid HP output of the active XO
2. and use an attenuating resistor on the ribbon ... say, 1.5 ohms.
