B&W Tweeter replacement "?" - Blu-ray Forum

Beta Man · 03-19-2008, 05:05 AM

I'm back....... Guinness and Blantons have calmed my nerves, but yeah, it's "talk" time. My wife of course blames me and thinks I should put the speakers in another room (it's not really a good option in our current house) I talked about doing a spare room, but since one room is devoted to our kid, the other room would have to lose a bed, dresser, and cabinet that's in there, and then we'd have no guest room, so she's against that... (we have a 3 br, and the basement is finished, but the same issue would be there with the kid going down there) There's a lot of issues that are hard to explain in the matter..... (like the Nanny speaks Ukrainian, and although my wife knows Ukie, I can't speak a word of it)

Fortunately I'm in good standing with the local shop (20 min. away or so) and he had one spare in the shop, and is ordering another from England (the speakers are at a warehouse in the Boston area, but parts need to come straight from over the pond I guess) apparently it's such a common problem, they routinely get replacement tweeters from them, and just box up the ones the customer's kids push in........ He gave me the one he had, and he's getting me another.... all at no cost, I just have to toss the busted ones in the part-boxes, and bring them back. It's a great shop... I think I'll buy a new T.V. as a sign of thanks (wait until the wife finds out!)

The issue needs resolved though, so my wife is going to speak with her tomorrow (plus she'll see that I removed BOTH tweeter assemblies, so it's gonna be obvious that she knows something is up there!)

She really is great with our son, she's reasonable on her rate, and she's a nice person....... We appreciate the fact that she's great with our kid, but she needs to keep an eye on hers at the same time, and 3 year olds are a handful....... I'm sure we'll work something out, she's just gotta put the fear of god in her kid!!!!!!

on a brighter note, this caused my wife to look up more new homes....... dedicated theater here I come!!!!
