So, I now have a pair of 704’s with a damaged tweeter.
Considering the damage likely occurred in transit, I may have recourse against UPS. Whatever the case may be, any recommendations as to how I address this?
Is it tough to replace a 704 tweeter? It would be such a pain in the butt to repackage, re-ship, etc.
Any thoughts on what I should do? Also, what effect on tweeter performance does a dent have on the tweeter?
Any advice would be really really really appreciated.
