Hi Romy, I agree with you that most speakers have some tilt-up treble response, maybe not on paper but subjectively so. I think this has to do with "beaming" of the tweeter. In real life sound in general (high frequencies included) becomes weaker because of the omnidirectional spread. In case of a tweeter, this sound energy is more present because sound is "beamed" in a certain direction and not in omnidirectional manner. My Dunlavy SC-V's also suffers from this tilt-up treble response. Too correct such a phenomenon I would have to modify the crossover to such an extend that it resembles more a thorough crossover redesign than a "simple" tweak. What do you think?
