Supertweeter for JBL 2447J

Soon I will start build of my JBL speakers for living room (in appearance something similar to JBL 4348). I will take care of the construction, but I will order the measurements for the crossover. By couple months I collected all needed speakers (all used from auctions), but I am thinking about adding some supertweeters to 2447J (got them with horns).
I was thinking about:
- Beyma CP21 horn loaded tweeter (similar to JBL 2405H)
- Beyma CP25 bullet tweeter (similar to JBL 2404H)
- Beyma CP22 bullet tweeter (a couple of these I can get cheap)

or add a ribbon next to tweeter like in Klipsch Heresy:
- Fountek Neo X 3.0 ribbon (I got one pair/ I would like to use them horizontal)
- Fountek Neo CD 3.0 ribbon (I got one pair/ I can add horn to it)

What do You think about that?

I would try to have the tweeter be close to the directivity of the horn on the 2447. You don't want a tight conical pattern like a bullet if you are using a CD like horn on the 2447. I would go with something like a 2404 as an example.

I bought a pair of used aluminum horn with 2 inch throat. It actually fit fountek jp 3.0 ribbons I have spare. What do you think about combination like this? Ps.I would like to add 2 bass ports on the sides of midbass unit.
