The Raal tweeter you referenced is not available for individual resale or direct sales outside of a contract, so I guess my theory that such tweeters are not readily available still stands... Shame because that Raal tech is mighty tempting.

Might I recommend a google translate of this swedish page http://www.hififorum.nu/forum/topic.asp?ARCHIVE=true&TOPIC_ID=32545

From Engelholm Audio, a freebie-DIY done in cooperation with members from the biggest swedish Hi-Fi-site.

Costs about 1500-1900 USD parts. I've compared them to BW802Diamond. Not even close. I'm never (never say never) upgrading them.

Might as well go with something like the BG RD75 and have the ribbon all the way to the bass range.

After RMAF I'm a little enamored of line sources.
