Im working on a low Budget driver combination. Goal is to be under 10 € per pair.
Im using a cheap 6mm dynamic driver 1€/$ and the RAD. The Plan is that the drivers will be put into a custom housing to combine their sound outlets into a single port.
his is what i have done so far. I dont have measurments yet or can tell you what the sound is like. Maybe some of you have some good ideas to further improve this design.

I mean it will definitely need some work but for a first try it aint too bad. (No filters no Crossover)

That looks great! I take it you 3d printed the housing?I mean it will definitely need some work but for a first try it aint too bad. (No filters no Crossover)

Yes exactly i 3D printed it. The low end is still a bit much for my taste, right now they sound like Beats.That looks great! I take it you 3d printed the housing?

This looks great. A bit little on the treble for me tho.I mean it will definitely need some work but for a first try it aint too bad. (No filters no Crossover)

Bro, it already looks better than many chifiI mean it will definitely need some work but for a first try it aint too bad. (No filters no Crossover)
i will recommend you to create a leak point, so that you can linearize the bass response(leak bass)
and grey damper to tame the 8 to 9kHz a bit

Do I wanna attempt a Tribrid? or are DDs and BAs far cheaper than every other type of driver if low budget is important?

DD and BA are cheapest you can get though

Its piezo:

Seems like I'd be interested in a 1 DD+1 BA+1 Piezo.
Does that sound like a nightmare to tune?

There is really no way of telling this with a random dynamic driver without any reference measurment. Do you have a knowles or sonion BA? you could measure it with the tube length and diameter they use and compare it.I am just sanity checking my calibration rig. Does this seem about right for a single dynamic driver IEM? Sweep at -12db, with no reference level set:
