Hey @fd60 Take your questions to DIYAudio in the multi-way forum. Take a picture of the driver, if it's marked as a SS driver the part number will be on it, otherwise maybe contact Thiel and ask what they were using.

you'll find lots of speaker builders and repair experts in that forum.

Best,

My point to asking Thiel is to see if you can find either a used or NOS replacement diaphram or driver. If it's a standard SS part then it would looking for it by the standard part number will give you more options to search for, but if it truly was a Thiel-only part then you're going to have to find a used or NOS replacement for the Thiel.
