... my only experience with newer, expensive Berillium diaphragm Goto drivers, has been a mix between "Wow, I'm listening to a +35K euros speakers system" and... "Gosh, music do not sound this way"... this of course was due to some crossovers tuning I wasn't able to do in my host house AND the T-amps feeding the speakers, quite lacking in harmonics and bass shy...
This to say... from the cheapest to the most expensive, the "house sound" is there, so, IMO, isn't necessarily true that "the most expensive is the best".
Sure Berillium and super-duper fluxes gave the feeling of a top-notch product, the best money can buy... nonetheless, my ears say it's also true a "cheap Goto system" is something to be heard, without overweighting words like "top, cost, flux, weight).
As a plus, my skin-feeling - i.e. having purchsed something which was The Real Thing, drivers and horns from the mid-seventies, where Sejia Goto himself was painstackingly building these products by hand in his workshop... well, cheap or expensive... these are, IMO and for my tastes, the drivers to own;-)
