Back in the day, when KEF Concertos were a big deal, I built a pair of KEF Transmission Lines around 1978 which had a super tweeter as the only hardware difference between the two.
Having said that, there was a lot of difference in the cabinets both internally and externally and the TLs were designed with the super tweeter in mind.
The Transmission Lines used Rogers speakers that I imported from the UK.
They did sound a lot different to my friends Concertos. Bassier and certainly a bit more up top.
I suspect some of the difference came down to the cabinets.
Are you planning on pulling out your tweeters and replacing them with the supers? I think they are meant to augment existing tweeters and you will probably end up losing more of the "lower" high frequencies if that makes sense. I’m sure you added the subs without removing the existing bass speakers, right?
In my experience, I find that I can't agree with the remarks about the frequencies above 10Kh not making any audible difference.
Just as the subs added something extra, the super tweeters probably will to. It’s all in there in the recordings and each addition that enables you to hear more of it helps to make it sound more balanced and complete from top to bottom.
Enjoy the journey.
