Default Cut Only EQ clipping light after brickwall limiter on Master Fader?

Both Oxford EQ and EQ III are showing clipping on their outputs with cut only settings (i.e. -4 @140hz). They are after an x3 with it's ceiling set to 0.1 db and then a Massey 2007, even with it's maximum output control lowered a notch or two. The master fader is at 0.
Are the EQ's clipping with only cut?
Do their clip lights show clipping at a lower level than the massey.
Do cut only EQ settings result in some boost at the edge/shoulder of the cut that could cause this?
Lowering the EQ output volume sufficiently stops the clipping indicator.
The more the cut, the greater the output volume has to be lowered, and the average indication on the output level is notably lower than the input level.

How can I trim a bid of low end mud from the mix without lowering the overall volume, or changing the limiting (which would happen if the EQ's were put ahead of the limiters?
