Oh My what to do?

So two months ago I bought a set of Swan 5.2F's and 5.2R's. One of the speakers has failed, as in the bottom woofer blew, and the top midrange and tweeter are not working properly. The dealer is saying there is little they can do, but refund my money, and is now offering PSB speakers as a replacement for my Swans. I am not familiar with the brand, so looking for some input, on what I should expect as a replacement for the Swans. I will miss the beauty of these Swans to say the least!

Have you checked the available HiVi woofers at Parts-Express? Maybe they have the specific replacement.

Well, Only 1 speaker is Blown, the other two play but at a very low db. If I have the Tone set to 0 on the left side, even having the right set at 10 is not as loud as the left. To me this has to be a crossover issue, and Swan says, they do not have replacement crossovers. At this point I am fed up with Swans service, so will be returning these and try out the PSB line instead

I have owned a few pairs of PSB and thought they were excellent speakers for the money. Lenbrook owns PSB and NAD and have excellent customer service and will be there down the road....

I ordered the PSB T's in Gloss Black to match my VMPS sub. I am keeping the Swan 5.2R's and may use them again for a second system. He He.. my way of getting two killer system. I will let you know how they match up once I have them.
