ive been into speakers for a little while and i am really interested in them as a hobby. lately ive been thinking about building my own front speakers and i have come up with a rough idea of what i may want. right now i am only pretty certain on the look/design of them and what drivers i may be using. i came here to get some ideas/criticism/help for my project (i want to build these this summer and have them to bring back to college with me in the beginning of september.) what i want is a really great sounding speaker with detail and also have really nice bass. ive been thinking about using a planar tweeter since they supposedly have really crisp and accurate sound reproduction. here is a rough drawing i did in paint:

Ive been looking at parts on partsexpress and these seem to be alright for what i want
tweeter
midrange
woofer
would these drivers all work fine together? around what size box would i need to build for these to perform excellently?
another thing i had a question on was the crossover. i'm pretty knowledgeable with circuits and such but im sure i couldnt design a crossover for a speaker. would a good 3-way crossover from partsexpress do fine or should i look elsewhere? if i could somehow find a way to design it, would it be better to just build my own? i have experience with circuits and soldering and such, since im studying to be an electronic engineer. thanks for your input
