Hi Dan and Bill,Thanks a lot for the link, Dan! According to the paper s-sounds in vocals are typicaly prominent around 6kHz.
Bill, you are completely right that this is in the territory of the passiv crossover of the BMS coax. And in order to compensate for the "dip" around 6k where the mid and tweeter does not quite meet each other, I have actually inserted a "by-passing" cap in parallel over the L-pad for the mid section. This gave back all the "presense" that I missed at that time!
One might think that this "by-passing" cap must be causing the pronounced s-sounds, but the strange part is, that the S's on vocals were STILL pronounced even when I used the standard BMS crossover even though I know there was a dip around 6k with the standard BMS crossover!?
I have not had a chance to measure the frequency response, but I will probably have to.
All the best
Peter
However, the strange part is
