What speaker has the best tweeter?

I love the AMT tweeters in my speakers. They are definitely different from other tweeters I have heard. I enjoy their openness and air. But there are qualities of other tweeters that excel in other ways. Some v pricy speakers use beryllium or diamond or diamond coated beryllium. I see that the price of, Seas I think, diamond tweeter is like $6K a pair. Then ribbons offer used. Not to mention plasma, etc.

millercarbon,
Tektons have one tweeter per speaker...I thought you had studied them. You comment on them a lot. --Jerry

Viawave SRT7 is the best ribbon available so that's what I will be using along with the Purfi 6.5 and revised crossover in the poured granite cabinets I have with externally tuned  brass connecting rods all mechanically grounded so resonance exits primarily in one direction, The floor..
