The tweeter on my center speaker went bye bye…

Any idea where I might be able to find a replacement? I tried contacting SF with no reply.
Hate for this to end up as scrap.

this month (3/22), these guys identified and provided replacement woofers for my Sonus Faber Cremona Auditors, originally made for SF by ScanSpeak... call them on the phone, have your old tweeter in hand to provide the model/serial number. They should be able to help you. I paid about half per woofer compared to what I paid SF for a replacement some ten years ago.
 
My cremona M tweeters have burnt for the fouth time. My cremona m auditor woofers and tweeters have been dead for a few years already. Each time a kid of mine plays with the volume this catastrophe happens.
I called SF in italy and spoke to the sales rep. He announced me that there are no more spare parts for those speakers ! How is that possible ? You buy a 30k set of speakers and 10 years later you shove them down your a.. ? That’s quite miserable.
Question is : is there any equivalent scanspeak driver that could perfectly match or are these ref really special orders built for SF.
Could i find a perfect match to replace them ?
The tweeters are TW035001 for both cremona M and cremona auditor M mention Q.C. Passed (Asia?). The woofers are scanspeak WOF035002 (15M/4539G05) for cremona M and WOF051001(15W/4539G01) for cremona auditor m

I'd talk to Scanspeak and say the Sonus Faber drivers are no longer available at least they can recommend the closest, if not providing a direct replacement. Even better if they can say what the performance differences might be so you can think about how you might manage that. SF are not what they used to be. After 15 years of onwership in two weeks I have a blow mid in my Cremona centre and a slight resonance in a mid on my SF Extrema's ! I guess that's not too bad for all the years if ownership, but frustrating all the same
