I had to replace one of the tweeters in my N802. It was not a big deal. Only took 5 min and no tools. Mine were under warranty and B&W provided the new tweeter with no questions asked. Very Professional. If you have to buy the tweeter I think it is around $150. All that being said my tweeter was not cutting in and out it was buzzing.
You don't have to take the midrange driver out to replace the tweeter. The tweeter grill will "twist" off. Then if you gently push the aluminum loading tube from the back the tweeter will just fall out. You can unhook the connections (noting which color is + and which is -), Reconnect the new tweeter and put (twist) the grill back on. It is that simple. The problem with taking the midrange out is that you need some special tools.

Hope this helps.
