Agreed! I doubt I listen to these much over 80-85dB. I was listening more for smooth integration and transition from the mid horn to the ST350 than FR. Quite honestly I started at the stock 3500hz and tried XO points every 250hz. Right about 4750hz sounded really nice. I don't think I heard much difference at 5KHz, so stopped. Maybe I should have tried higher!?
The ST350 is 3-4dB/1W/1M less efficient than the 1823M/ST120 mid combination. The tweeter attenuation in the stock crossover was for protection, not level matching or FR.
This discussion has been most helpful and explains what I was hearing and my measurements. Since this EQ is only on the ST350 I won't be mucking up the midrange.
Wish I started this discussion months ago!!!
