Zobel's attenuation on driver

206.101.70.201

I've read and heard from knowledgeable people here that using an impedence EQ (Zobel) on a tweeter cleans up response. But doesn't it reduce output slightly as frequency goes up?

The reason I'm asking:
I've kinda settled on the Audax HM210C0 (8" carbon fiber) and the Seas H881 (27mm chambered textile) for my next project. The woofer appears it could benefit from such a slight rolloff as it's freqency graph is flat to ~1.5k but with a slight incline going up with frequency. The tweet, however, has a beautifully flat response that I want to preserve. I've also heard that this is a very smooth and neutral tweeter, and so don't feel it would need to be "cleansed". From what I know at this point, I'm inclined to use a Zobel on the woofer and a series notch on the tweeter with a 2k L-R 2nd order. This will be in an aperiodic enclosure. Any thoughts on this project are welcomed.
