> Turned out the tweeter on one of the speakers needed replacing How much time it took to figure that out, and what is the chance the thing would turn out unsa

  I had those speakers for a few years before someone else noticed it, lol. The other tweeter worked just fine, and the speakers as a whole were so good that even without the dedicated hardware for higher frequencies it was still better in those ranges than what I'd been using. I don't know how likely it'd be for something like that to turn out unsalvageable. I think that essentially everything at that level uses wooden enclosures, so it'd come down to whether the speaker bit is set into the wooden enclosure with screws or adhesive, and I don't know about the industry enough to know what the ratio is on that. Probably mostly screws. Then getting a compatible driver is probably guaranteed, at worst you have to replace both sides to keep them balanced.

  Lots of defects in speakers are actually serviceable for a reasonable cost. For high-end speakers, I think it is worth trying.
