The tweeter on my Studio cc690 v4 center channel has seen some physical damage from kids/cats?
I'd like to replace it with the correct part. Does anyone know what I need and from where? I'm in western Canada if that matters. I'm sure I could contact Paradigm and pay the premium but I'm cheap.
I don't get on here much latley so email might be quicker... thanks!!!

Can you show us a picture of the damage? With some luck it is merely cosmetic damage; with a little less luck, you can buy a replacement voice coil assembly; but if you are SOL, you must buy the whole thing at retail price from the manufacturer...
Just a thought. Paradigm often uses the same tweeter through out a given line up. IOW you may fine that the tweeter is the same in all of the Studio CC____ version 4. If so you may be able to find one of the lesser models from Studio line up version 4 in a used one for less than what Paradigm wants for just a tweeter.
If you want to explore this route let me know as I should be able to verify if the same tweet was used across all Studio version 4's.

a bit futher information...
here is a picture off the web of the tweeter "pod" (with small mid). I'd guess this is probably what Paradigm sells for the $380. pretty sure it's just the dust cap that's damaged.

sorry... sometimes tomorrow never comes.
Here are some photos.
This last one is a healthy tweeter on my Studio 100

Does it affect the sound? If not, why fix it? I have to believe that a replacement voice coil can be had for much less than the $360 quoted, probably around $100. It might be a diy job to replace it.
