They are in my bedroom so they are not exposed to much traffic.
Replacement tweeter are around $1,100. Anyone have a better source?
Using MC2200, MC1201's, MR78, MVP861, MCD205
That seems risky not having the grille on the tweeters. They seemed to exposed to me, but I did hear the price of replacement when I bought my speakers, so that probably contributed to my paranoia!
