Repair Magnepan MG IIa vs new 1.7 or 0.7, etc

I purchased these a few months ago.  Tweeters need to be replaced.  I can get the repair kit & do it myself (I heard it's a mess to do) for $50.00 or I can send them to Magnepan to have all the drivers, magnets, Mylar replaced with new for $600-800 plus shipping (approx $170-200).  Or I could buy new.   They are set up in a living room dining room combo (L shaped approx 25x35 feet).  Maybe the 1.7 or 0.7? Or possibly the MMGPlus.  I have an Odyssey Khartago Amp.

Anyone have any advice on this?

If you are able to do the repairs yourself then Order the $50 repair kit & do it leisurely and over time... with the money saved buy one of the newest versions,you'll end up with two speakers...
you'd perhaps not get your money back if you do the factory repairs.
for the size of your room go for 1.7i & up.
Good luck
