Default Using the Dayton RS52 "full range"

Is it possible to use the Dayton RS52AN from 500 hz and up? Will the break 13-14 khz breakup be of any real concern?

I am saying that when I run the RS52 dome midrange without limiting the top with inductor, I have heard the sharp breakup peak and it bothered me, so I had to limit the top.
If it does not bother you, fine, but the resulting speaker will be far from flat. It gave it nasty sibilance. Otherwise its a nice clean and very neutral sounding midrange, I like it. I used it twice already. Its a midrange, so you are going to use tweeter with it, right?

Thanks for the reply. The idea was to use it without a tweeter. I wondered since the breakup is so high in frequency it would may work to use it "full "range". Would a notch filter make it work without a tweeter maybe?
