Help, I've blown my tweeters

I have a pair of TDL speakers

I've blown the tweeters on them, I was thinking about buying some new speakers, either to replace them, or more likely, ones with good tweeters to put on top of it, but it occured to me that I might be able to fix them but I don't really know much about this stuff.

Repair, or more likely replace the tweeters. I'm not sure what tweeters I'd need, or where to get them from, but I reckon with some words of guidance I could replace them.

thanks for any help

Have you tried contacting TDL? Swapping in drivers is a bit of a crapshoot without knowing the the original.

Isn't TDL toast?

I don't think they were ever big enuff to use anything but regularily available OEM drivers,

Can you post closeup pictures of front and back of the tweeter?

Might we a bit tricky with that waveguide in front?
