PSB tweeter replacement
Just contacted PSB and the replacement driver is going to be $112 shipped. That was a bunch more than I expected to pay so I'm going to try and look for one online first. Thanks for everyone's help

PSB tweeter replacement
To troubleshoot I swapped the tweeters between the two speakers and found that the tweeter that wasn't working didn't have anything coming out of it and the one that was working was now working in the speaker that had the defective tweeter in it. It seems that the crossover would be okay in this situation as the trouble followed the bad tweeter with it not working. Also, the tweeter that isn't working doesn't have any sound coming out of it, no distortion, buzzing, etc. It just doesn't work Does this verify that the tweeter is the issue? I'm guessing it does. Thanks Marc Yeah, Madisound did let me know that they haven't had replacement voicecoils for over a year.

PSB tweeter replacement
@Pars - The tweeter it uses is either the D20TD-18-06 or the D20TD-05-06. Looks like Madisoundis sold out of both. They do have another one that could be a replacement but it is only a 3 screw design and my tweeter has 4 screws. If I went with the 3 screw replacement tweeter they recommended I cover the four screws with wood putty and then drill 3 new holes. I would probably have to do it to both speakers to get the tweeters matching. Not sure if I want to do that as I'm not really good with projects like this. Do you guys think it will be pretty easy to do or should I just wait for one to pop up? I called PSB but the person that handles the parts for the U.S. left early for the day and won't return till tomorrow. I left my contact info and will try to call again tomorrow. Also it seems that Madisound doesn't have any Vifa replacement voicecoils for over a year. Thanks agian for all your help. I'll keep this updated.

PSB tweeter replacement
Thanks guys for your help . @derekbmn - Great suggestion. I'll be sure to call Madisound tomorrow and see if they have a retrofit for my speaker. Thanks Earl. I only emailed PSB but I have give them a call tomorrow as well. @Pars - Sorry for this noob question, but how will I know if the voicecoil is just blown only?

PSB tweeter replacement
Hi everyone. One of my tweeters for my 400i PSB speakers is blown out. I was wondering where a good place would be to try and find a replacement tweeter. I honestly never did try and find a replacement tweeter before so this is new territory for me. I sent an email to PSB in hopes of purchasing one from them if they have one, which seems unlikely after doing some research on the net. I put a WTB ad in audiokarma as well. It seems that a website called Madisound Speaker Components | Assisting speaker builders for more than 25 years. used to sell the replacement, but they don't offer it anymore. I will try and call my local authorized PSB dealer to see if they do have a spare one or if they could help me out as well. I saw that I missed two auctions on Ebay in March that was selling the PSB 400i driver. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated . Thanks in advance.

What did you do today?
This sounds like a fantastic day. I haven't ran at the beach in a while. When I do regularly I loved it. Something about the clean salt air that made me feel rejuvenated. Have a great time at Beerfest.

What did you do today?
Took my son to a high school fair today. It was great. Good fun and fun games. Also, he's old enough to ride some attractions and play in the bouncy castle.
