It doesn't sound different than the other speaker's tweeter (in other words: it sounds great IMO), but for peace of mind I am thinking I need to replace both tweeters.

Unfortunately MA doesn't carry replacement parts for these speakers any more.

So, I have two questions:

1) Does anyone know where I can locate a match?

2) Can anyone suggest a compatible replacement from the modern MA line?

Here is a picture of the pre-repair/damaged tweeter:

Ask in the PARTsexpress forum or amybe they can give you the specs as they are not producing it anymore....for sure with hte specs you should be able to find a nice replacement, even maybe a diaphragm that will fit in the front panel of the original tweeter....
