@tonybuild all three cross components look like great starting points. Couple of things I always watch for when working with these two very different type of drivers. the 3300:i9 has TONS OF juice on the deep sub freqs. Tons of punch but can get a bit reckless, meaning it can do one of two things, muddy up the overall soundstage OR (which is more common) leans toward a much darker sounding IEM. ways I try to combat the bully driver; 1) I always run my positive lead from the connector to the negative pad on the 33i9. 2) connect the negative pad on the 33i9 to the positive pin on the connector. Doing it this way in my testing always yield a cleaner more controllable response that made the lower mids much more responsive to the Passive components. 3) I have stopped using thick film SMD resistors in every build design I make. In their place I use SMD MELF resistors. The tolerances are much more accurate (within 1%) and there is considerable less THD. 4) Over time thick film resistors seemed to always get a little crispy or chippy. Meaning, they would always begin to breakdown and cause some low level unwanted frequencies to trickle in. 5) I prefer L-Pads on the i9 as it causes the first resonate peak to lay down a bit in the same peak position. Whereas a series resistor will always push the resonant peak up the EQ leading to NOTICABLE distortion. 6) Im loyal to the 1mm ID for the I9 when paired with the TWFK. When the i9 is paired with the 2389 or ED using 1mm ID, the result almost always sounds like an old tube radio. BUT, with TWFK, I dont hear this and the charts bare it out.
TWFK is extremely easy to work with. 2mm ID tubing at arlund 15mm with a grey damper 3-4 mm from the sound bore. In this build, dont strangle the TWFK output pontential. Without any RC components, TWFK only reaches 110dB. Real world though, its more like 107-108. You need most of that passive draw. If not, you’ll find yourself chasing your tail jn final tuning.
TL;DR version:
3300 9\i - reverse polarity, calculate your L-Pad for -8 to -12 dB (if Im remembering right thats like a 5.2 Ω MELF (or thick film) in seriez with a 6 Ω in parallel. Also, wire the 2 subs of the 33 parallel. 1mm ID x 2.5 OD at 15mm tube length with a yellow Damper positioned betwen 8-12mm
The TWFK, 2mmIDx3mmOD @15-16mm in length and a white damper 3-4mm from the sound bore.
PSA - On lower driver count builds, Its good practice in my build experience to never share pads with other drivers. All wires connect to driver pads the. led to the the connector and not another driver. Makes any potential future repair easier to diagnose.
sorry for the novel. You caught me just about to redesign my in-home entertainment room and rebuild my wifi network for faster cloud performance. Let me know if you have any questions. I fell in love with doing this by doing this exact 4 driver build at least 40 times. If you can get this dialed in and consistently reproducing the same soundstage from the breadboard. The higher driver count builds make more sense and the biggest challenges become engineering enough space to them as opposed to chasing your sound carrot on a 48 hour bender.
gotta go. THE ADHD is kicking in and if I dont follow the dopamine rn and get back to designing, I will most like start a new favorite hobby by noon.
im here to help anytime!
