It is most like that people who told you about it did not lay to you. In my post above I said that the use electromagnet in Cessaro Beta’s upper bass electromagnet driver most likely was superfluous. Superfluous is not necessary, not required, addition but not useful functionally.  Your Thomas Woschnick who just taken delivery of a pair of Cessaro Beta's which utilize a field coil for the upper bass driver  and who  is very pleased with the results, he pleased with result of speakers perhaps and it has absolutely nothing to do with electromagnet drivers that the speakers use. In upperbass any benefits of electromagnets are not there. However, I am sure that Cessaro charged 30% for the electromagnets options (you can confirm it) or at least solicited Thomas Woschnick to buy the system with respect of the fact that the speaker use filed coil. It was exactly what I was taking about – the electromagnet idea used as a marketing tool of propulsion not as sonic impactful property.
