c) depends upon…

    It really depends on the drivers and the system design. Sometimes it helps the rolloff by damping the knee, even if it's not affecting the natural Le curve.

    Generally speaking a Zobel's intended purpose is to flatten the impedance, which is not really an important feature if using a modern amp. If using a tube amp, you may want to flatten the impedance to keep a near 8 ohm impedance across the spectrum.


    If it helps the response of your system, then by all means use a Zobel.
