punto mk2 speaker

I have alpine front comps, 60RMS. had them for about 2 1/2 years but now the right tweeter (i think only tweeter but not too sure) crackles. is the speaker blown? or is it wiring? or amp even?

why would just one side go not both if the amp was pushing them too hard?

if i need replacements (to fit in standard places, no pods or anything like that) what would you lot recommend. minimum 60 RMS maybe more if i have over loaded them! budget is zero but i need them for holiday! i guess £100 (which is about what i paid before) maybe £150 if i can fit them myself.

i want power and quality!

cheers!

Re: punto mk2 speaker

not had a chance to yet. i'll swap channels on amp too to see if its that.

just wondering how likely it is that only one would blow. and what replacements people would recommend if it comes to that.

Re: punto mk2 speaker

rainbow comps are supposed to be pretty decent, high price tag though...
