@Zfactor - I found the mid to be quite easy to overdrive mechanically, at least compared to the Peerless Exclusive and Usher I have here. Also, underhung coil typically has lower thermal powerhandling.

As far as the tweet, I found it has a rising on-axis response with a peak in the upper octave IIRC ~15khz. I don't believe that further break-in would reduce this, as I think it's a function of the dome coating and profile. With dynamic recordings (and test tones) the driver also begins to get spitty at levels noticeably lower than the Lotus 27 I have on hand.
