It has to be not only robust but also, I have found, to be properly regulated. If the voltages aren't really locked down tight then you get a situation where things can "walk around" and this makes distortion and affects imaging and soundstaging in particular. Big is good, but well regulated keeps the imaging/soundstaging accurate and precise.
For open and transparent highs, pretty much nothing beats a plasma tweeter, although a good ribbon, electrostatic or horn tweeter can get close enough that it is more academic than an actual perceptive advantage.
