Super Tweeters essentially extends the frequency response of a speaker upwards an octave or two, giving the overall sound more "air" in the process. The effect is pretty subtle, as you do not get any real information in the highest of frequencies, but if the source has them (unfiltered 24/96khz or DXD based recordings) it will reproduce the signal, even if you cannot hear it. I found that they add a little "air" and space to recordings.
