Broken Tweeter

[niceguyhomer]

The tweeter on my Bergantino HT112 doesn't work any more - I've been offered a brand new one from Bergantino to fit myself for £70 or they can repair it with a new diaphragm for £25.

What would you do?

Can you not see what it is? Don't Bergantino use B&C components?? Seems quite steep to me...

I'm technically challenged and a lazy tw*t to boot so I thought I'd ask first before taking a screwdriver to it. Even if I can see what it is, I still have to decide whether to repair or replace.

I'd be tempted to replace and avoid any reoccurring issues. Have you looked at getting it cheaper from a third party dealer/distributer?

You'll need to unsolder and resolder also... if in doubt, replace. It's pretty straightforward replacing a diaphragm though.

I have to confess when I saw the title of this thread I thought maybe Silvester had finally caught his prey...
