the current "A" tweeters go up to around 50K anyway, or so I was told in a conversation I had with Bruce(a while back) re my concerns about using my Sony SCD-1 in its high frequency "custom" setting mode(which increases the freq on SACD playback to 50K) vs. the "standard" mode(20K), as the Sony manual warned against possible tweeter damage because of the extended freq beyond normal levels.
I didn't want to risk frying my 8A's tweeters, especially if they wouldn't benefit anyway, because of the tweeters limited response to 35K (as published in the ET manual); to which Bruce revealed the above mentioned freq number and told me I had nothing to worry about.

So I don't think freq extension will play a big roll in the new "B" version but that doesn't mean it won't sound better. As I plan to put myself on the buy list as well! ;)
