I do not like the AMT Heil drivers at all. I have no idea what 5 times higher transient response they claimed but to my ears all AMT drivers I heard sounded like their upper notes are covered with 2 inch deep saliva. The Heil drivers are in my view the ultimate “girls with banjo” type of drivers and surprise that 99% audio people love AMT as they do not accustom to listening anything more sophisticated than “girls with banjo”. Heils convert any note higher than the double high C into some kind of generic Vaseline-covered HF note. They do sound “impressive” with American Steel Guitars but actually if the demands to sound are higher than average Saturday white-trash listening under beer then there is absolutely no help from Heils.

Take any chromatically-complex music and Heils will make all upper notes to sound identical. Who need that type of performance from audio?
