Can anyone comment on where I can buy sheets of the cardboard material (which is clearly ferromagnetic as it sticks to the RAAL tweeter magnet) that comes with the speakers that protect the RAAL tweeters?

I suspect this is not that expensive.

I'd give Ascend/Dina a call.

Blue painters tape works just as well, this is what I use...

Haha that is what I use too when I'm temporarily removing or rotating the tweeter.

So to clarify- I’m about to do the v2 upgrades and I can’t find the magnetic tweeter protectors. Is the blue painters tape good enough here? I don’t want to accidentally break anything doing the upgrades!

Yes, blue painter's tape is absolutely good enough. It is what we use here when doing the same work.
