I'm terribly sorry but I jumped the gun in reporting my findings re the bypassing. I erred in specifying the .47uF in the tweeter compensation network as being the cap bypassed. I had indeed bypassed it but removed the bypass cap before I bypassed the 20uF in the zobel network. So I assume adding the extra .15uF here in the zobel additionally damps the woofer and I'm thinking now it's a bit to much. I may try a .1uF or even a .033uF. Am I correct in assuming that with tube amps the woofer can use a bit of extra damping as long as the impedance remains as low as possible?

I still am curious about the effects of tweaking the high freq. compensation, though. Any advice is appreciated!
