it's motion is more linear. Since it's a variation on a regular voice coil the gap can be small unlike a planar where the gap has to be big enough for the diaphragm to move. Large gap reduces magnetic strength massively. Also the diaphragm probably has more linear travel since at 1st the diaphragm isn't instantly resisting motion like a planar(a ribbon is different) and greater excursion reducing the area needed to reach higher loudness. Because of the creases in the driver it should have different break up characteristics than a planar.
There are a few prototypes of the Pipe Dreams line source speaker using these drivers with Pioneer horn loaded ribbon(not planar) tweeters. But Sawafuji went out of business and the Pioneer tooling broke. Or else the Pipe Dreams would have used these drivers.
