    You should replace your 'towers of crap' with some $39 Sony's from Best Buy. They sound sooo somooth and soooo claer plus they sound like speakers costied $130 because the poly lamianinate tweeter are the same plus the box is cardbaord and the woffer cones are yellow so they go low and sound crips.

    I dunno about that, but the extension of the Berylliums is supposed to be extremely high.

    apparently yes for the focal to 40kHz
    http://www.utopia-be.com/Technology/Beryllium.htm

    and yes for the b&w
    Studies show that diamond's first breakup frequency in this application is as high as 80.8 kilohertz—roughly three times that of aluminum.

    From what I recall reading, Focal claims they lack the ability to truly measure the range of the Be tweeters, that their equipment cuts out at 40Khz, but that it should reach up near 100Khz.

    Fat lot of good that does, I'm sure

    Play them loud after dark. You may get a few bats to fly into your house.
