Faital HF146 vs HF10AK - Top End Performance

Anyone have an impulse response measurement on the HF10AK on an STH100 or indeed any generally similar horn that they could share here? (or privately by PM) I need a sanity check. I have an apparent ringing problem that might have everything or nothing at all to do with the driver/horn combo. I run them as tweeters from 8kHz up.
The HF10AK is a larger 1" exit driver, I bet there are better and cheaper drivers for 8 kHz and up.

There might be, OTOH they are what I've got. I think I have identified the root cause of the ringing - my DSP.

Here is a measurement I took in July that I forgot about, the ringing isn't present. (Tested using Topping Dac to power amp to horn, Umik-2, REW) Power amplifier is 300B SE with a source impedance of just under 2 ohms.
