Someone wants a pair of monitors done and is paying for it. I´ll keep you posted if you are interestedt. I could also send you a small ammount of resin if you want to try it out.
I just got the prints from Farquarl and they came out really nice and fit perfectly :D IMG_20200323_092721.jpgIMG_20200323_092725.jpg

I'll connect the crossovers to the sonion drivers.

This will actually not be needed because acupass is an acoustic crossover , and it is designed not to use electric lowpass. Just one capacitor for 2389, connected to half the coil, What uF? I'd do well to experimentally listen to the ear and observe the impedance diagram / freq resp. I will try 10uF. You definitely need to check the polarity 38D1XJ.

Hodvtec yellow edit: orange damper 1mm*22mm full range, white damper 20mm*2mmCI full range with Rab 0,47uF +maybe resistor 5Ohm series , 2mm*15mm Double TWFK, all drivers connected parallel 1uF white damper. (OFC, HODVTEC requires the right polarization, TWFK also. You have to test the phases.)

Thanks! It would quote difficult to fit i a universal fit shell, I just only managed to fit 2xCI + Twfk in one shell.

What impact adding Cap and Rez to RAB make? Cap would work as high pass, right, so Rez would make it more silent?

Hodvtec and twfk requires right polarization - polarity is marked in the schemes, are they not reliable?

It is recipe for CIEMS, universals - you can use shorter tubes, any, the ear canal will compensate for tube lengths. You can use 2mm cuted needles to reduce the thickness of the shell tip constriction. Actually, it's an 9/10 on a scale of difficulty. You need a large universal housing. Something like a KZ big shell.

Yes, highpass on the RAB allows for working in one phase with CI. RAB adds a lot of air and improves the CI scene. The resistor allows to cut the dry midrange sounds in RAB (I don't know if it will be needed there) I used it in damper free 2mm tubes projects.

Probably Hodvtec must be connected with reverse polarity to CI. In case of TWFK it may be similar, but it should fit in positive polarity.

Thank you for your input, good base for my experiments.

Any experience with Sr? I've somewhere it should make a good woofer and it is only one top firing driver currently available at Soundlink, so I was curiuos.

Hi guys, just sharing the latest.

3D printed Finale 2, Elegoo Mars with dental biocompatible resin.

Nice how did you scan it ?
