I will say this about the 7khz Peak on these drivers again. I see it in the spec. sheet but, I have had 3 pairs of natural stock drivers untouched or modded Drivers. I never heard any peak problems at 7khz. Now with the Fostex Fe 126en drivers now they get peaky sounding. I really found the FF 125wk drivers very enjoyable to listen with out any problems. Almost to natural but, again I think fostex had really done a great Job with the new line and the FF 85wk is a Giant Killer almost the perfect speaker. N.S.
 
I too think so NS,even though I just had few hours on it. If I fix the problem of baffle step I do not hear any peakiness,or I can not hear.This speaker just sounds so good ,especially with vocals and violins I stopped listening to my Monitor Audio silver RS6 for vocals.
I am debating between line level baffle correction versus output correction..

The cone treatment mine received leads me to believe the harshness has been removed.

So did you hear any improvement with those drivers? What about Zig glue around the rim of cone and surround?
Also wondering if someone can tell me what should be the tuning frequency of box for FF125WK.The data sheet says 67 but may be it is a little higher like in 70?
