B&W Help... tweeter problems!

I have a pair of B&W Silver Signature 30s and this is the second tweeter that has fried. Has anyone out there experienced any problems with the Silver Signatures? I don't think I have a problem with the amplifier (Jadis Defy 7) and I am very careful about not overdriving the speakers. I am starting to question whether the silver voice coils are up to the task. This is more of a pain than anything but a pair of speakers this expensive shouldn't be going through tweeters!

If it helps you, one of our materials suppliers deals with B&W and knows their people well. Let me have the serial numbers of your speakers and I'll pass it on and see if they can get you an answer. Regards, Richard at www.vantageaudio.com

I would also contact B&W. In the US they are in Boston. I have emailed them on occassion and gotten quick and thoughtful responses to questions.

I have had problems with older B & W tweeters and i also know of another member here that had problems also. I was probably hitting mine too hard and the other guy's problem was due to quality control. One tweeter measured VERY different than the other. Sean >
