Devialet can now repair Phantoms, it seems..

I found this interesting text on Devialet's web, advertising refurbished Silver Phantoms:

Each Refurbished Phantom undergoes a series of tests and extreme controls to ensure the highest quality and performance, identical to the new products. When the quality is not up to the requirements, Phantom is disassembled and reassembled on the same production line as the new Phantoms.

So it seems Devialet finally developed a method for repairing Phantoms. Hopefully this is less costly than being offered a new unit at reduced price if you need repair outside of warranty. Does anybody know more about this?

As I recollect, a fellow member has disassembled the speakers without too much trouble. The center cones of the woofers have to be removed and some nuts under the cones and under the side plates must be removed. Then the speaker is disassembled. Why Devialet doesn't provide a repair service is strange. I would guess it's purely an economical matter, not practical.
