 Normally (but not all the time) you try to put drivers as close together as possible. The more spaced out they are the more likely you'll get comb filtering.

Just to expand on driver placement
i.e., the "not all the time."
The distance between each transducer need not necessarily be as close as possible, but rather as close as required by crossover point in relation to wavelength. Thusly, the shorter the wavelength (higher the frequency) the closer together transducers should be placed to avoid comb filtering issues.
Also, it is important to note that the flush mount item for the Neo3 tweeters offered by Parts Express will act as a waveguide. For a true flush mount unit something like
this would be needed*. I purchased two from
here (the only place I am aware that sells them. They won't make instillation much easier though since they are square as well.
*Do note the person who built the speakers did not flush mount the units, but it can be done with this plate.
