Watch out for the biassing, the compliance of the -Icon is ~0V, so there 
is not enough room for the lower diodes, since their other end is at a 
virtual GND. Either rebias the filter core upawards so that the virtual 
GND is somewhat positive. Or rework the current sink so that it sinks to 
-Vcc instead of GND.

Cheers,
  René
