Thanks for the +s' and the kudos, but MC held the nail...
I just drove it home. ;)
In my unfortunate example, it was one out of four prototypes.
I had expected 'issues', and wasn't disappointed.
But it was a stupid error on my part, and hasn't been repeated since.
Since Speaker Repair doesn't list Dunlavys, call 1st. But do, whoever you go with eventually, follow SRs' suggestion:
Remove the driver from the cabinet, and ship it 'raw'. They'll charge you for both removal and remount, a simple screwdriver routine. And shipping a cabinet is just heavier and more $'s for packing and weight.
This you can DIY; PM me for the routine I've used before. I'll even send you a drawing of the how-to in a jpg or pdf... I 'do' that sort of thing daily.
I've shipped a pair of JBL woofers cross-country, had them reboxed in mine, and returned in perfect shape after a recone and surround swap.
If anyone else wants in on that, get in line.
