Dammit! I even ordered ∗two∗-- as I was on the fence about whether to get
one or two.

For those who are curious, there's a nice article at Old Crow's page
describing the rather extreme (!) reverse engineering of these filters, with

Would I be disappointed if the GX-1 filter doesn't meet the break-even
point? Yes, very much so!
