Townshend or MuRata Supertweeters? Thoughts?

I do love the added air and dimension provided by the ultra-high frequencies that superb supertweeters offer. I owned a pair of Wilson-Benesch Trinity with integral MuRata supertweeters, which I enjoyed very much.

The outboard MuRata run $2k or so. I’ve read that the Townshend are fantastic as well, at half the price. Any thoughts?

I have had both of these units at different times. I favor the Townshend but that was a quite a few years back.

I guess some speakers may need help to provide that additional "air". My current speakers have Beryllium tweeters, and I found the super tweeters no longer necessary.
