Just aquired a pair of LS70's...........seems I have one blown driver labeled MW8100 vintage 1998. I am looking for one possibly two replacements or suggestions for replacements.

Thanks
Karl

    Perhaps the 8103 was considered an upgrade replacement too??
    I may end up having to part these speakers out if someone is looking for drivers..........

    Thanks

    :(Well, no luck for me finding a driver.........pursued another complete setup so what I have is available if it helps anyone else out. They are on craigslist in Ohio Cleveland area at http://cleveland.craigslist.org/ele/1570504276.html

    Really had hoped to locate the MW8100's for the LS70's since I haven't had a chance to fully enjoy them. The LS50's are quite nice sounding!

    Still open for a single driver if someone has one, thanks.

    Do the LS70's use MW7100 mid drivers? If you are parting the 70's out and have a pair I am definitely interested.

    Kevin, botht the mid and bass drivers in my LS70's are the MW8100's. I believe the LS50's and the LS90's share the same bass/mid drivers but the LS70 is the odd man out.
