Would a $37 RST28F fit the bill? Fitted to a WG300 for $16 seems like a very cost conscious yet good sounding combo.
Here was the RS28F and RST28F compared in a WG300:
You may need to design a custom WG and get it 3d printed - unless the size of the mesh basket on the Bliesema T34A is standard diameter. The WG300 for example is 40mm dia throat.

I would guess the jantzen waveguide made for the TW034 tweeter (which funnily enough I also have a pair of in my JBL SVA2100's) can fit the T34A, but no way I'm paying that price to find out. 3D printing looks like my only option
The Jantzen WG for TW034 tweeter is 48 euro each - seems reasonable price if it fits. You will spend at least 15 Euro to print one, after you design it. The Jantzen one is machined hard plastic vs 3d printed so might sound better.
What is the diameter of the T34A mesh basket?

The grill comes off pretty easily. Nice flush surface to work with.
Would be very impressive with a waveguide....

Is there a North American source for these? None of the usual suspects seems to offer them.
WG300 is 40mm throat so seems perfect for T34A. I guess the grill is much bigger than the dome.
I was lucky enough to have a friend in EU give them to me as a gift. They were designed for the DT300 tweeter which might be pretty good. You could save yourself the trouble of making an adapter if it fits. Priced well at 50Euro too.

Thanks it's tempting to have it integrated and don't mess with miniDSP
even if its quite a lot of money.
I listen to Purifi now in some small boxes I had and it is realy something special.
Just waiting for your TL build to see what you think about it.
🙂
You could save some money using all Dayton Audio brand parts - they sound great actually. My prototype XO used all Dayton and measured about the same. Only 8 parts and no really expensive parts. Probably $40 to $50/pair in parts not including PCB and you can P2P it. That’s quite inexpensive for a passive XO. Especially one that can do the whole transient perfect thing.

I put my Prurifi in some old Argon 7220 that I have as tv speakers.
Just stole it and put som small kitchen speakers there and wonder if my wife should recognice it.
No.
🙂
Anyway I did I dust of my RPI with Volumio and did an dirty measurement in REW to use it with there DRC.
WTF!
How good could it sound!?
DRC think I would 40hz in those small boxes, in bruel and kjaer listening curve.
I could live with this.
But.
Need ASIO to Cubase and same reference global listening.
So an speaker, desktop as I hope your TL could loose the problem even if I know it's not an perfekt system maybe it's work.
MiniDSP, I dont know, sold mine, have Khadas Tone Board amazing,yes budget stuff as an DIY and now Purifi...
I have used active XO’s a lot with miniDSP and other DSP’s. But I still think a well done passive XO still beats the active solutions in ultimate sound quality. Plus, it lets you try out different amps to see how they sound (if you make as many amps as I do).
Revised Plans for TL with Corrected Baffle Cutouts
Updated drawings for the TL with a removable baffle. I re-measured the driver cutout diamters, depths and CTC spacing. The previous drawing is incorrect for the baffle cutouts, please use these drawings. Drawings are available in PDF and JPG below.

Thanks @XRK971 for all the hard work, much appreciated by me and many others.
I have been having a play with the Leonard TL calculator and would appreciate opinions on the mini tower and tall&skinny tower TLs that I have (very badly) sketched up and modeled. Both attempt to keep the same line length as XRK's (calculated at 88.75", correct ?) but in different form factors. I prefer the tall&skinny but thought welcome. The models come out pretty similar (I think the T&S has slightly better response but this is in the rounding of the measurements so not significant).
