Well, I do not agree that “there is no HF in nature. The subject of HF in audio is complicated in in many instates when I see a playback installation that is flat to 20dB I feel that this installation was rather a mechanism to malice people. If you sit in symphony hall in your 10-15 row then you have good -20dB at 15kHz but you do not hear complain about HF, even if you factor in the ears non-linearity curves…. Anyhow, if you feel that you get rid some of your HF noise then you can start to work on your tweeter.


That's more or less what I meant - we dont have natural sources of 15kHz (save for bats and dolphins) other than in the attack/decay and related sound characteristics. All that high-kHz ability of a system is needed  not to mimic bats or dolphins but to properly reproduce some of the natural sound characteristics: space/air, microlocalization, attack/decay, etc.

I listen on electrostatic headphones so no tweeter to work on.
