Wilson Watt Puppy 7 Blowen tweeters?


Has anyone else had any problems with blowen tweeters on W/P 7? It has happen to me twice.

Thanks

Any company that charges $20k+ for loudspeakers should bend over backwards to solve any issues experienced by their customers. The solution should be comprehensive, and it should completely eliminate any reason or need an owner might have for searching for answers in a discussion forum.

IMO, Wilson should send a repairman in an official Wilson jumpsuit right to the front door of the owner to repair the speakers and troubleshoot the problem.

No sarcasm intended. Wilson markets their product as the Rolls Royce of audio loudspeakers, and they should provide service at the same level.
Duanea,

Yes, you should absolutely contact a Wilson Audio Dealer. Wilson Audio should keep speakers serial numbers and perfomance parameters on file so thay they can get you drop in replacements. Also they should be able to replace the resistors if that is your problem. As Shadorne put it you are most likely overdriving your amp causing clipping. You may want to buy a bigger amp or back off the volume control.

That's a good point Tvad. Although not all high end company's provide what most would consider good service or warranty. Take Ferrari for example, they only give a 3 month or one year warranty on their new cars not the typical 3 year 36k mile.

If someone here can't take a little ribbing for making a typo, they should get a sense of humor. I am not accussing Duanea of that.

What I don't understand is why a lot of people here on the Gon ask questions that would be best answered by the manufacturer or a dealer.
Now we are going to harass this person with the blown tweeters in his Wilson speakers because he made a typo!!!!!!!!!!!
Grow up!!!!!!!!!!!
well, ok. But geez, there's nothing mean-spirited here, and Duane has been on this board for years,posted regularly, is always articulate, and without typos, so it's not like he has any reason to be hurt.

Can't we have a little fun?
TVAD had a good point, about Wilson for its price should bend over backwards, maybe they should just bend over.
Maybe you didnt have your tweeters properly mounted in your Vice......or was that just an add? :)
