No Sound from Tweeter

I had a B&W 802D - didn't drive them hard at all, but blew 3 tweeters. It is an easy fix, but you have to buy the tweeters...I'd stay away from this sale.

Thanks everyone for the advice.

Bgpowell, I hooked the good tweeter up to both speakers and it plays fine, so at least I know the internal wiring in the cabinets is still functioning properly. The other tweeter appears to be dead. The voice coils on both tweeters are very dark, not bright copper as they are when new.

As for returning the speakers it's not going to happen with this guy. I was lucky to get $100 out of him based on the condition of the cabinets.

Worldwide,

If I was you I would be buying "two tweeters". Granted you have one tweeter working well, but for how long? Keep the one tweeter that still functions as a "back-up". Now as far as the "beat-up" cabinets, you might want to inquire with some small cabinet shop, or even with some audio DIY'ers about rebuilding/repairing and refinishing the cabinets. Now this is assuming the once you replace the tweeters, that the speakers sound the way you expect them to.

you might want to replace the other to keep the tweeters similiar,this used to be the procedure but I am unsure if it is still in practice today;maybe a call to the manufacturer for additional advice would help if you think this could be a issue.
