I have been reading the Audiogon forums for quite some time and ocassionally have had to ask some questions but there are a few of you out there that play games and treat these people that ask questions like morons, why don't you just stop all the crap and if you cannot answer them correctly or help them with their problem, don't respond at all. Now we are going to harass this person with the blown tweeters in his Wilson speakers because he made a typo!!!!!!!!!!!
Grow up!!!!!!!!!!!
Give him a break. Check w. your dealer. It should be a simple resistor switch. Fast & painless. You need to purchase the resistors from Wilson. If you really are blowing tweeters, I never have. I like to play loud. If I hear strain I turn it down.
In general, and there are always exceptions, tweeters are more apt to be blown by a combination of overloud playing from an underpowered amplifier; the amplifier being driven into clipping and it is the clipping that destroys the tweeter.
I own a pair of Sophia 2s. More than likely your tweeters are ok. There are resistors that protect all of the drivers in Wilson speakers. For the tweeter, the resistors are located on the bottom of the Watt underneath the access panel. You will need to call your local dealer, because these are very specific, and unfortunately expensive resistors. If you are under warranty, they should be covered.
