OK first off, if they are fully loaded and ready to go then that's not such
a bad deal, considering the 'empty' wooden horns from Visaton are about 500
Euros apiece IIRC...??


Except they are not tweeters, but someing else entirly.

To quote:

" The Ultras actually function by employing an "ideal" (coherent)
single-frequency source to improve the transmission characteristics of
the signal-conducting materials. The working frequency of the Ultras is
above 1 Gigahertz (GHz). The fundamental change to the conducting
materials produced by the Ultras allows the audio signal to be
transmitted more efficiently, with less noise and distortion. The Ultras
may have a similar influence on the medium (air) for acoustic waves
generated by the primary speakers, allowing the acoustic waves to travel
with greater efficiency and precision. Since the Ultra Tweeters operate
on the entire audio band, the improvement to the sound is not
frequency-selective, but across the audio frequency spectrum."

So there you go.
