Default RIP Diamond Tweeter !!!

I moved to a new house a few months ago. I designed a dedicated music room. I had issues with the sound of my system (which includes 800D's) that I thought were due to the acoustic space. I've spent months tweaking the treatments and still couldn't recreate the soundstage depth and detail I heard in my old room. Last night I was checking the speakers position and for no specific reason took the tweeter grills off to see if that would help. GASP! One of the tweeter diaphragms is in many pieces. Has anyone had to replace a tweeter on a 800 class speaker? Can it be done in place or does the speaker have to go back to the factory? Fortunately there is a B&W dealer in town. I'll ask him the same question today. In some ways I'm relieved there is a real problem causing my audio angst. I was thinking I'd have to burn down the new house and start over.
