Context: I have a pair of original Phantom I Silver’s (105db). Unfortunately one of them was damaged during a move this summer and needed to be completely repaired. Total repair was going to cost $1300 to fix the damaged speaker and update the exterior of the second one so that they would match aesthetically. I took some time to save some money for the repair but Devialet now says they can no longer have the parts necessary to repair my speaker. Because I had already talked to them about replacing the damaged speaker they’re instead offering me the option of replacing both of my speakers with either the current Phantom I 103db ($3000 fix) or the Phantom I 108 ($4000 fix).
So my questions are as follows:
1) What other options might I have?
2) Has there been any significant improvements / upgrades to the modern Phantoms?
3) If I do decide to replace both, is it worth the extra 500$ per speaker to get the 108db over the 103db?
