Romy,
Thanks again for your comments.
The RTA and filter mods over the past few days have driven me straight up to the local café to chill out; they have WiFi here (this being France, still no internet at the house)... I will be brief.
Regarding mic positioning : I took some measuremnets from the listening point... My god, what a mess! This resulted in a phase of obsessive-compulsive filter tweaking, which went on until colapsing on the couch from fatigue, where I finally concluded something like what you mention below:
"...What Jessie you do are relatively simple measurements and in your case the microphone might be at any position – even at the mouth of the horns... So, the data that you collect via measurement will be juts to interpreted differently in case you measure from your listening position vs. you measure at 1 M from a given horn..."
I think I need to leave the filters for the moment, settle down, listen to the system (while cleaning the place up a bit !!!)... and get going on the mid-bass horns.
In the mean time, I am really starting to see what drove you to DSET (and also the Water Drop tweeter).
