Changing Tweeter on Olympica 3
Why not just change one and see if they sound different? If they don't, then it is up to you to decide if the cost of replacing the second one is worth it.    
Next step up on the streaming food chain?
@rzado  "Its also strange that he so strongly recommends a random Belgium made server he happens to sell as superior to products 3-4x the price" I find it strange that you find it strange. His opinion changes to match his inventory.

Scout's Honor No Internet Search R n' R Triva questions (4)

Ambulance chasers are an untrustworthy subset of personal injury lawyers more focused on scamming victims out of money than getting justice in their cases. What is the audio dealer equivalent?  
Updating my streamer
