While I do like, won't the stacked plates act as a small waveguide?"Some people find it easier to be conceited rather than correct."

They are not done yet, and this is costing me all of $27 to do this, if it doesn't work then I reverse it back to stock, but I have faith it will work out just fine!! :-)

Keep in mind everything I'm doing to these speakers is for fun, and it's all reversible if I don't like it.. :-)
Also it helps having something to keep my mind on other things, and my hands busy.. -

That was the plan at first but when you take the tweeter apart you realize the positive and negative wires are exposed and the aluminum will connect them..
There needs to be a barrier...
The inside hole that you see still needs to be machined, it was lasered small on purpose for final machine as well as the four holes to be drilled and c/s, I have stainless screws for the assembly...

Ah ha, I figured you'd have that answer.Political Correctness'.........defined
