Default 3 way midrange help

in the process of a 3 way build.
bottom box will have 4 x 6.5 dayton woofers ported
top will have a tapered side as well as front and back.
this will have a morel mdt37 tweeter and the mid.
i was looking at the new morel cam 558 round face.
what do any of you think, cone driver or dome?

I've heard the Morel mid and it is a great driver. However, with the 4x180 bottom, consider a 3.5 way with the SS 10F mid and a little lower crossover than the Morel.

The MDM55 seems to work well with Dayton Audio. In your setup you can use it with low order crossover, you could have very good results.
My personal taste, it is my taste, this midrange is not my favourite (I own a pair).
You can see the dayton RS52 and an example of set-up : Zaph|Audio - ZDT3.5

Already seen here.

3 way help

thanks guys
sorry , confusion with my first post not posted right away.
the only reason for the morel mid is the outside size. however i can change to any other size.
my goal is to make a style same as genesis 5 series type but as a 3 way.
what xover points is recomended ?
like 500-4000 or 625- 5000hz
