Affordable vs. ultra expensive speakers - what's the difference?

So this is kind of interesting. I bought a pair of QLN Sonoras and just absolutely loved them. Very minimal simplistic design. Engineered with the less is more philosophy and they worked extremely well in my setup with the Audio Hungary Qualiton ... 
Which Tweeter preferred- dome natural material, Beryllium/Metal or Planar Ribbon? Why?
Yitrium Dome Ribbon Silk Tweeters.   
Silversmith Fidelium Speaker Cables
The question is how do you know Glory has never tried the cable. Nice!    putz.   
Midrange heavy speaker cables, any recommendations?
Lamp cord, UL approved of course.  
Tube Integrated vs Tube Seperates
I prefer the simplicity and sound of a high quality integrated tube amplifiers like the Audio Hungary Qualiton Series. But they are above your budget even used. My X200 smokes every PL, AR and Mac separate I have ever owned.
