    I saw a pair going really cheap in immaculate condition.
    I'm having a problem with room acoustics and thought I'd give seald enclosures a try

    Might have been my all Sony system to be fair. I didn't really enjoy those speakers though.

    If you take the plunge and subsequently find the tweeters not working, be aware there is a protection curcuit built in to the crossover to prevent over driving.
    I understand the component/s can fail and cut out the driver.

    B&W recommended simply bypassing the faulty curcuit and taking care with the watts.
    Info is available on the tinterweb but I cannot recall the route.

    P.S...his only effects the mk2....fuse protection in mk1.

    If you don't like them I'll give them a whirl if they're cheap.
