Hello.
Did anyone build Rinjani KIT acoustic cabinets?
Could someone have a detailed photo of the Rinjani cabinet build?
I want to build the cabinet myself as on the original.

I take it you have seen this.
It doesnt tell the whole story, but you should be able to gleen the fundamentals.

Yes, I need more details.
If someone who bought the Rinjani KIT took pictures or videos of how the cabinet is constructed inside, it would give me more understanding of how to build the cabinet.

SB Acoustics Rinjani T-M crossover frequency is 3kHz, which is higher than praised USA designs which use a 1,700-1,800Hz crossover.
From the audioXpress review: "In an anechoic or critical listening environment the peaks at 4 kHz and 5 kHz may present themselves as a bit harsh" This beaming comes from the 6.5" cone operating at 3kHz and above with a modest LR2 crossover circuit.
If you already purchased the drivers, just experiment placing them them in your room to aim the midrange at the main listener.
========.
If you can accept a 2" wider front baffle, search for Satori 3-way T-M-W kits using the Satori TW29R Ring Dome Tweeter, Satori MW16P-8 6" midrange in a sealed cabinet, and the Satori WO24P-4 Woofer
Using the Satori MW16P-8 midbass in a sealed volume allows a 100-150Hz woofer crossover from the Xmax=13.6mm, and a 1700Hz tweeter crossover. Using the Satori MR16P-8 midrange will produce greater midrange detail, but its underhung Xmax=6.2mm motor favors a 200-250Hz woofer crossover and a 1800Hz tweeter crossover.
diy forums in Poland and Denmark have excellent Satori designs... these forums favor complex crossover circuits to flatten SPL bumps. You can run simulations with just the basic Xover components to determine the value- cost- removal- options

To what designs are you referring to? I haven't seen any 2.5way with mw16 besides the Rinjani and the sba 761

But I already have four MW16P-8 and I need to do something with them. Maybe there are other projects, MTM or 2,5-way where MW16P-8 is used?
Jeff Bagby designed the Adelphos mtm, also Martin King has a design that is published for personal use. The Bagby design is a for purchase kit from Madisound. Glenn.
=MTM==============
Research MTM soundstage with M=6.5inch. Biro Technology paper has the math
=
You could build Troels documented MTM cabinet, and use Martin J. King documented MTM crossover ckt with a modest cost TW29R-4 dome tweeter.
-OR-
You could purchase the R-L-C crossover parts from Troels store for the 'fast' NdFeB TW29RDN-4 dome tweeter.
=3way==============
You could "adapt" Troels well documented FloorStanding Illuminator TM cabinet using the TW29R-4 dome tweeter on a baffle cut for 3-way TM-W. A sealed 0.5cuft volume MW16P-8 is used as a midrange, and the second MW16P-8 in the remaining 2cu-ft ported volume used as a near floor woofer. With just the cone area from one MW16P-8 bass driver, you would give up 3db of bass efficiency(87->84db). BUT you would gain superior sealed midrange transients. If your room is small... If speakers are placed near the wall... With a 2cuft woofer volume, you will get -F3 ~37Hz bass shelf from the second MW16P-8 .
