RTA 11tl Impedance

Hi....based on my research, it appears that the RTA 11 tl’s have a significant impedance bump between 1 and 2;kHz. Has anyone made any crossover modifications to smooth that bump?

To what end? No loudspeaker has a flat impedance curve. You're trying to solve a "problem" that isn't.

Speakers impedance fluctuates through the entire audio frequencies

And most conventional dynamic loudspeakers (especially modern ones) look sort of like the Andes when it comes to their impedance curves
