Crossover component placement (alien.top)

Hi all Would this placement of the component for a crossover be efficient ? Mistakes? Improvement?

Thanks in advance

It looks like L5 and L4 have the same orientation. I would change one of them, inductors near each other should be on a different planes.

Punch holes in your mounting board and stick the leads of each component through. It is much easier to twist and solder that way, none of the components will interfere.

Also consider moving the tweeter crossover to its own board, so that you can mount it high up in the cabinet. Makes for a cleaner and easier working environment.
