I have seen measurements where a passive filter component (a coil) reduces THD with about 5-8dB. Even after the slope caused by said component is EQ:ued back to flat.
So maybe what Plcamp is saying has some bearing but maybe not related so much to the notch but instead the fact that there are component(s) in series with the drive unit changing the drive impedance of that driver which may have positive effects on brake-up behavior
Edit: Wrote this before Plcamp´s post, we seem to be somewhat in agreement
Found the above mentioned measurements, 2 coils totaling 1,6mH in series in the second picture:
