I have a pair of these (as below) that one of our children decided to abuse by playing some of his shite music through at stupid volumes.
This has resulted in one of the tweeters being well and truly blown, a repair is needed as I want to ebay them, does anyone have or know where I could get a replacement tweeter?  |

Never criticise another man until you've walked a mile in his shoes. Once you have, call him what you like, you're a mile away and you've got his shoes!

I've been trying ti work out how to do that Mykey I think they may well be glued in as I can't seem to feel any screws. Doesn't help that I have hands like a bunch of bananas and the hole's so small.

Yeah looks like a Dayton with the front chassis removed.

I searched for ages for replacements, finally bought some new old gear off ebay last week, then found the scandyna spares site - argh!!! Thought it might be helpful for anyone else searching.
I also had problems getting the tweeters out of the shells, ended up wedging my camera inside one and taking pictures... turns out mine have a circlip holding the tweeters, thankfully no glue. If there are circlips, you should be able to feel 2 extra prongy bits that are separate from the thingies the wires are attached to (I'm not technical, lol). Yes, joined the forum especially to put a stop to anyone else having to embark on months of fruitless Minipod spares searches like what I did... I'm not really into speakers apart from the cute ones, I am a girl, after all, hahaha

Oooh! Really like the first design.
I have thought about making my own speakers (I'm a sculptor), but have always been put off by the assumption that complicated physics will be involved. Is complicated physics involved? |
