Good to know. Maybe that anodizing treatment that f1eng talked about helped with that...

Regarding the color, I don't think the so-called "photographs" are actual photographs. These are most likely 3D renderings from the CAD software they used to design Phantom. Using this type of software, you can do many fancy things regarding color and such.

Beryllium is a bit like asbestos and big dogs; as long as you don't disturb it, there's nothing to worry about. The dangers come when it's machined. Apparently then it's highly carcinogenic.

It's not carcinogenic problems. Check Scanspeak beryllium tweeters notes about it.

I removed the grid some months ago. It does sound a bit better IMO but the treble is still a bit short to my ears. Not talking so much about bandwith here but more the impression that cymbals, triangle or chimes resonance is somehow shorten compared with JBL 2405 tweeter for example.

Just curious, did you listen to them like that, or did you remove the grill only to show us the tweeter? If the former, does the sound improve that much to be worthy taking the risk of damaging the tweeters by accident?
