Is it possible to get any 3in "midrange"(I know they aren't exactly midrange, but they aren't tweeters) replacement speakers for the two rear sats that blew out on my Logitech z-560's? I can't seem to find anything, though I did see some diy pics on the forums a few months back, and it looked(or they said) they were 3.5inch drivers, so I figured I could probably get some 3inchers from the same company, but I forget the brand..

Also I don't think I want to just replace them with some "normal" rear bookshelf/compact(usually 4-5in woofers, and then a tweeter) because they would probably sound like crap because there is no low end signal going to the satellites as far as I can tell, but most of you know more than I do so I am open for suggestions.

If i'm not mistaken I beleive logitech uses tang band 4" full ranges in the Z 680/560 series speakers. If you could open up the enclosure for the blown satellite speaker and take it out to see what its exact diamensions are. Then you can compare them to the TB driver.

Nope they use the 3in, and I see why they are blown, 15w rms max, logitech states their speakers recieve 54w rms from the amp, though I don't really trust their(logitechs) rms ratings for their systems. Thanks though, I may just get the 4inchers and make my own enclosure, and replace the fronts later on as well.
