Back around 1980 I worked for Marantz, in Loudspeaker Engineering, when they had a real engineer there and proper test equipment for evaluation.
I learned there that cloth dome tweeters can only play so loud. It was crazy to record response curves at several volumes and see the tweeter output settle down to one particular volume level though the woofer volume was going up.
This was in the 80+ dB range, but well within levels you might occasionally play at home. I've not been in favor of cloth domes since.
