I had a crazy idea today. Open baffle, ribbon tweeter (Fountek JP3.0). This mainly arose from wondering how to flush mount a tweeter with a circular faceplate and a rectabgular cutout without buying a router. And then I had the idea of mounting the tweeter behind the baffle. That way I could keep the opening to the size of the ribbon. Maybe angle/roundover the sides of the 'slot' too. If I measured it right, I could get the baffle cutout to follow the angled sides of the faceplate where it meets the grille.
Is there any value to that at all? Or are there strong reasons why I do not want to do this? Could/would any potential resonance issues swamp any improvements in directivity?
