gallo 3.1 repair

Long story, but I fried the upper mid left channel on my pair of gallo 3,1's. Any idea where I can get a replacement? I would guess it should not be too hard to repair? thanks for any help>

PS. I can post a follow up as to how this happened, but suffice it to say stupid error and clipping from A Valve Audio Predator are to blame...

Contact Gallo directly, heard their CS has much improve and that one poster on another site actually got theirs fixed rather quickly either free or nominal charge.
Let us know how it turned out.

Get them fixed by Gallo. FWIW - that driver is well known to be delicate - if you like to listen loud at realistic levels then it might be wise to fix it and get another speaker more suited to being driven hard...

Shadorne; My experience exactly, they just do not handle the dynamics of symphonic music well...wish I had known.
I will probably get them fixed and get some speakers that can handle it. Wondering about Odyssey Lorelei's, any thoughts?

There is already a thread going regarding speakers for classical music that you might want to check out. The interesting thing about classical recordings is the volume levels between discs can be huge, as much as 10-15 db. Just curious as to what happened on the Gallo's. There has to be more to the story then just dynamics.

I have not heard that the 3.1's have issues with classical music. I love my 3.1's and have not noticed any flaws in them.

That being said best bet is to always contact the vendor and see what they can do for you.
