I own the Lawrence Audio Violin SE speakers which uses a front firing AMT tweeter and a rear firing ribbon tweeter for ambience. I previously owned their earlier model which used a front firing ribbon tweeter only. The AMT tweeter is warmer and smoother sounding than the original ribbon tweeter. As stated above, ribbon tweeters, may have a higher range of detail but at times can sound fatiguing especially on poor recordings. I also experienced this with beryllium tweeters when I owned Focal speakers. Like all things, it comes down to equipment matching and your preferences.
I'm looking to learn about Air Motion Transformer technology
I'm curious about Wharfedale's use of Air Motion Transformers in their new Elysian line. See http://www.wharfedale.co.uk/elysian4/.
I'm admittedly in the dark about this technology even though other manufacturers have used it. I'm curious about its use, potential benefits, sound signature, etc.
