contact your local b&w dealer they will be able to get parts and a good one should be able to fit them for you as well

the authorized dealer list is available here http://www.bowers-wilkins.com/display.aspx?infid=1426

B&W would be first point of call. Failing that contact Wilmslow Audio.

maybe daft question but any idea of cost?

i would expect around £50 per drive unit tweeters may cost less providing you can get away with just changing the diaphragm, But this is not an option on all models what do you mean by sounding odd?

I take it you have checked that the bridging bars / speaker cables are connected correctly?

I believe I'm right in saying that b&w dm610's date back to the early 90's and if you need to replace more than one drive unit your money might be better spent on an upgrade?

Something along the lines of b&w's dm686 at £279 or dm685's at £379 would be a vast improvement over the old 610's Loudspeakers have come a long way in the last 15-20 years!

Depending on the age of the kids you should be able to offset the cost of the repairs with what you make when you sell them . The little darlings , I'm sure you'll miss them ,

yes one of the speakers sounds dull but if you put up the volume it has a touch of distortion .i got in touch with b&w and its £50 a driver.and as this is my second system and the speakers are old its bye bye time.so im in the market for cheap bookshelf speakers .any recommendations .

I quite simply fear for my system when children become part of me and my partners life sometime in the next few years. I will insist on a locked media room where all expensive items are kept for sole adult enjoyment.
