Beryllium Tweets


who is buying into the ~~hype~~?
 I mean new is not always better. I think this Beryllium  is all hype. ~~ IF indeed  this tweet was superior to past proven and tried legends,,why are there not videos on Youtube with the ~~goods~~ the proof is in the listening So  far there are no  uploads with a  compare to old Legends. 
I am staying with my Millenium. 
I've read somewhere the Be tweet sounds rather plastic-ity on top end. 
btw we should mention the Be tweet is actually a  mid-tweet which is the best design for a  2 way. 
If someone can make a series of vids comparing the new kidontheblock Beryllium, I ain;t buying in and have this gut feeling its all hyped.

There's also a beryllium ribbon tweeter. First introduced in the early 1980's by Pioneer, designed by their TAD division. Frequency range up to 100.000Hz!

It was available in some top end speaker models like S-955 and S-933, but also as an add-on unit (PT-R7 and updated version PT-R9).

I don't think it is still being made, but they do appear on the used market from time to time. Not exactly cheap, but highly recommended!
