Thanks for the info.
They're a discontinued speaker model and, from what I understand, impossible to get OEM for. And also, from my understanding, replacing the speakers in this line with something other than OEM will change their sound.
At leat that's how I understood it.
I've got a pair at home with one of it's tweeters making staticky/crackling sound at certain frequencies. They've never been driven hard or anything else.
And, to be honest, I've no idea why it's even making this sound. Is it the actual tweeter making this noise, or something else, like the crossover?
Anyway, I found it totally weird that both tweeters were completely dead on the pair yesterday. In all of my years in audio, I've never dealt with this particular issue with regards to speakers. Some other stuff, but not totally dead.
I offered the seller a quarter of the asking price, thinking I might somehow be able to bring them back to life or have a tech do that at a reasonable price, but the offer was refused. The seller, instead, is looking to get them repaired (or at least look into it) and sell at the original negotiated price, which is a-okay with me since I went there with the original negotiated price in pocket.
