Thiel CS1.6 Has anyone ever substituted a new woofer for the original?


I bought a pair of Thiel 1.6's knowing the woofers weren't working.  The coils are open.  The rebuild would cost $500 for the pair.  I'm not sure they're worth investing that much.  Anyone ever substitute another woofer successfully?

The Thiel 1.6 is one of the finest speakers I've ever heard/owned. Its only shortcoming is bass response. When used in a small room, it won't leave you wanting. Pair it with a  KEF's KC62 subwoofer (again, in a smaller room) and you've got something special.
