Thanks for the info--very helpful. I totally agree that $2200 is a great deal for the speakers. And I got a bunch of other equipment to create a really good system. I'm grateful for that and don't want to sell it so don't really care about resale. But spending a couple of thousand bucks on audio equipment wasn't
exactly in the family budget before all this gear rained down on me and
it still isn't...so I just want to figure out my most sensible move is. I really like the way it sounds just the way it is, actually, and am happy to own this equipment for the rest of my life.
And the diamond part of these tweeters is intact--it's just the mylar (or whatever it is) membrane that was poked out. It would be great if I could just find a way to fix them. And if not, maybe I'll try mechans very economical suggestion (thanks!).
