Totem Forest uses a Swan driver???????

Is this true? Forest would be using some HiVi (Swan) drivers (stock or modified, I do not know), the D6.8 Bass-Midrange:

A friend of mine had to get his changed 3 times in less than a year and the last time his dealer told him these were Made in China by a former Canadian-based company and - of the record - not necessarily of the higher grade (got to love a dealer who can shoot himself in the foot that way!!!!!!).
Does this mean that one could...for much less....or this is something frequent, these drivers are top notch anyway and there is nothing wrong with using Hivi drivers in $3,000 speakers?

DIY is wonderful. You learn a lot. After you learn a lot, you figure out how to save a lot AND get great sound. Before that, it's kinda hit or miss. The advantage of buying speakers you can hear first is that you can hear them first,

If you like the idea of saving money and getting great sound without most of the learning curve, look into speaker kits. North Creek Music has some very interesting ones.
