Not that you want the hastle, but I assume the larger passive radiator version would solve this distortion peak.
Without that peak, you would be well under 0.1% distortion at 95db. What you have is already quite something for a standmount!
Here is the Revel m106 for reference at 96db...View attachment 124053

Without the 400hz peak, your nearer the 328BE than the m106.
By the trend, your design looks like it is likely otherwise capable of clean output at 100db+ without auditable distortion
(debatable around -48db 'ish' for me, but not even slightly 'offensive' until at least -28db from 400hz to 7khz for me personally)

I would be very hesitant to compare my distortion measures to Amir's. Will see what results he gets when he measures.
Modeling indicates Directiva should do better than 110 dB.
