Hello Everybody!
I have the opportunity to buy a pair of very nice floorstanding speakers from a dealer. These are demo samples, with full (6 year) warranty. The home demo was succesfull, I like the sound a lot, and the price seems reasonable (about half of the new price, albeit the model is discontinued).
The problem is the following: one of the soft dome tweeters is not perfect. At first I thought, I saw just a sort of shadow on it, but soon it became obvious, that it has a shallow dent on the surface. The sound is not distorted, it seems, that it's just a cosmetic failure.
The dealer offered to change both tweeters free of charge, if I buy the speakers.
So my question is: which is a better decision? Original speakers with slightly dented tweeter, or new tweeters with the danger, that the sound will not the same, as it used to be. Or should I wait for a flawless pair of speakers in the used market?
