The issue seems to be what you do in the 3khz range. M3s and M40s seem to be "almost" as revealing but also seem to show less sibilance as a result of a dip in the 3khz range.

I suspect that the "less sibilance but equally revealing" speakers would also have a bit of that dip but not sure. Comments ?
