Did you get good enough figures to know what sort of dB drop the low
frequency filter is giving you at each of those bottom frequencies? I
believe you said it looked exponential.
I record nearly always with this filter on, because it's supposed to go
into effect at frequencies lower than any of the frogs I'm interested
in. And it does get rid of a lot of low frequency noise.
Informal tests like this are always interesting. And that's why we do them.
