I have a pair of nice of B&W 601 speaker. However, one of the speaker has given me some problem., the sound is distorted when play with slighly higher volume.

After hunting high and low for B&W service center in Malaysia, I finally found that TMT Service is service center for B&W product. I have sent my speaker to them and they found that the problem is caused by the circuit board/cross-over and it cannot be replaced as the spare part for this old model speaker is no longer available, even from B&W HQ is UK.

I still like this pair of speaker. As such, I'm seeking other alternative trying solve this problem.

Does anyone know any other people who can repair B&W speaker?

or

Does anyone have the similar speaker and is not fully functional and would like to sell for the part?

Appreciate anyone who can help me on this.

Thank you.

If its the crossover, I think you buy other brand crossover it might work but the sound might be different.

I have an B&W sub which also the capacitor problem. Brought to a hifi shop and they say cannot repair. Eventually brought to those real electronics repair shop where you see piles and piles of tv and electronics and the manage to fix it. Just change capacitor.
