RE: Decipher This

is "because they cost more" the right answer? I am not an engineer but here is a go at it. Let me know what you think.

I suspect that the osmosis in the plates results in a higher absorbtion factor simply because there is discontinuity and less unform plate structure for some of the electrons to energize. The assymetrical structure provides for some discontinuity in the resonant frequencies.

This gives you an amalgamation of different kinds of energy releases and in turn results in different sonic artifacts. These artifacts can be additive to the main signal, and make music sound euphonic. But keep in mind, the signal may also be distorted in many ways which are audible on very sensitivity transducers.
