I use the same software.
Not sure what you mean by two different drivers. W & T or, are you comparing two different woofers?

For the bassbox portion, the tweeter has no effect on the design of the box, so it isn't needed. Just plug in the woofer T/S parameters and go from there.

However, for the crossover design, then you'll have to enter T/S paramaters for both drivers. That portion of the software does provide for both drivers.

this is not terribly sophisticated software. for example it doesn't have provision for baffle geometry or C to C distance between the drivers.

PCD is much better for this, but to use it effectively, you'll need full impedance and response data sets.
