Hi Mark,

Your question seems to be about filter topologies or "how to connect
components to get a filter".
http://www.maxim-ic.com/appnotes.cfm/appnote_number/1762/ln/en
BTW What you seek is not there.

Mr Bessel, Butterworth, Chebyshev and fellow filter types are about the
component values and resulting behavior of your filter.

Maybe a 6dB filter is good enough for your application?
There might be other solutions.
What is the other half of the stereo pot doing?
Maybe its possible to free it up.

Cheers,
Theo
