The one quality of the silk dome that's attractive is that it sounds 'silky', and does so without sacrificing any transparency. Being able to listen for long periods without being fatigued by over-etched or razor sharp treble is definitely a desirable attribute.
This was exactly what I was looking for when I started demoing speakers. My ears were starting to act up from the metal tweeters in my previous speakers.
