You should tell them its a custom Martin driver and they can only get it from Martin distributor. That way you get the job done, it costs management a bit more but that doesn't affect anyone you actually like there, so its fine.
You also need to consider your reputation and maybe even legal liability if things go wrong after the repair. Passing the buck to a distributor = safe.

yeah, this isn't the first time they've trashed a woofer, but before it had always been under warranty, now that it isn't, that's why i'm looking for the driver. So your buddy that's reconing them, just you ask to see if he knows what driver they use? or the numbers on the driver? It would be much appreciated :) I don't plan on replacing the driver physically myself, i just want to let the club I used to work at what to buy and they can deal with it.

sounds similar to one of my clubs, run by idiots, yet the staff are all lovely.

Well I will say, management hates me, but the others don't, bartenders, security etc, we still get along fine, that's why i'm willing to help them.

I have some, but i'm massively busy, if i do get chance i'll have one out and find out unless you get something in the meantime.
However, that all said, i do agree with what others have said. Personally, i'd find out what you can about the driver, and then call them and say, you can help them by replacing the driver for them. and charge them driver cost +30% + your labour costs at, whatever per hour. People can start to take the piss very easily. And if you let them, they'll keep it up. |

Why are you asuming it's an off the shelf component?
There's every likelyhood that it's custom made for Martin Audio by RCF or any other manufacturer.

This may sound silly but if they hate you, won't let you in the venue, then I don't see why you should waste time helping them. Point them in the direction of the nearest Martin Audio distributor or just guess the driver!
