It shows it can work.
But a properly designed system/crossover must be measured multi-axis and in actual enclosure/baffle.

Tried that too, by they are custom made excels for Tandberg and therefore a bit odd looking.
Then it would make sense to perform measurements to find out the difference. A small step in the right direction.
Well, Seas confirmed they are the same except for the gasket cutoff and colors. And I don't have proper tools to measure the drivers...
Alright then, can you attach frd's and zma's you have of these? I would like to check something.
You have made one mistake defining high frequency boundary while tracing Seas W12 CY001 spl/imp graph.
Will you go ported? These drivers do a surprisingly good job of bass.
The straight edge on the basket of the woofer will let you place closer to the tweeter. Try to get them as close as possible. I like to even cut the tweeter faceplate, but depends on your tools.
Actually, would you like me to design a waveguide for you? You can get it printed at JLC PCB. Then it will match the woofer directivity better, allow a lower crossover and reduce baffle diffraction.

I plan to go ported, unless someone has a better idea. I will put them gasket to gasket, I just don't know yet if I will do TMM or MTM placement. Thanks for the offer for the waveguide, but I have no idea how to integrate it with the rest.
I made it rectangle so it is easy to router a rebate with a 12mm cutter.
Baffle Cutout. Add your own tollerence.

Vb should be about 6.5/7L tuned at 45/50Hz depending on the alignment you prefer. 10L is a bit too large.Will a box like this work?
10L is probably good once you consider the port area is removed and some bracing. Maybe a 5cm dia port 25cm long, mounted in the bottom or top of the box?
Do I need to take into account the volume of the crossover as well? Those Clarity Caps MR 3.3u and 4.7u I have are quite massive.
It's not that critical. Also add some bracing inside the box- front to back, and side to side. Opposite panels linked together.
5cm for two 4” drivers seems a bit overdone to me, a (flared) port of 40mm would do. Keeps port resonances away, because its reduced lengt. Plus: for a classy 2-way I’d take a passive radiator.10L is probably good once you consider the port area is removed and some bracing.
