    B&W 330i Tweeter Problem

    I've acquired a set of B&W 330i speakers for my living room and need some help. The speakers sound great, but one of the tweets a B&W TP26 is dead.

    B&W Matrix 803 Tweeters

    Hey everyone! I was able to pick up some B&W matrix 803 speakers today used at a pretty good price. They are in good condition, just need new tweeters (though I have the tweeter housings). Is there any way to get them cheaper than the $720 it will be through the B&W parts store?

    Hey gang, this is my first post, but I've been reading for a while now. I have a pair of JBL J900MV speakers at my work and one of my colleagues has managed to blow the tweeters twice now.

    Hi. After I re-foamed my Advent 5002s, I was adjusting the stuffing inside the cabinet. Unfortunately, the yellow lead wire from the crossover snapped off the 1" dome tweeter. The connection to the tweeter is baffling to me on how (if possible) I can reconnect the terminal to the tweeter. It...
