Hello everybody 
i'm currently begginning my second DIY pair of speakers, here is what i planned for the moment :
2 ways MT , bass-reflex ,with SPH-165KEP as a mid-woofer and Fountek neocd 3.0 as a tweeter
crossover : Active 24db linkwitz riley phase perfect crossover as described on the ESP site, crossed at 2.5 khz, though not sure about that .
I'm currently doing some testbox for the SPH-165KEP, trying to find the best bass-reflex configuration, and i don't have the fountek yet
What i wonder is, is this a good choice of drivers, as i'm pretty a newbie for integrating drivers together, or should i choose a more traditionnal tweeter ? i'm really curious about all this ribbon hype, and would like to make my own advice
so what do you think ?

Mess? Hardly. Mating a smallish bass/mid with a ribbon is the way to go. What you will end up with will probably surprise the heck out of you.
If its any consolation, I'm currently torn between getting the Founteks (JP3) and the Aurum Cantus G2Si. From what I understand they're almost interchangable.

great !
the two things i was wondering were, first, could i meet a coherency problem between the two drivers ? ("speed",cone material)
and second, what the neocd 3.0 is worthing ? i've heard around that it was not a "true" ribbon because of the "enforced sandwich" material ... i don't really care as if it is a "true" ribbon or not, i wondered if anyone had listened to them, and if they compare with the true ribbons JP 3.0 ?
