Hi,

That product is discontinued and there is no longer support for that
product.

Well that sure was helpful. Just because a product is discontinued does
not mean the company will not offer support for it. I am very
disappointed to see posts like this coming from MVP's (especially ones I
have seen answer other posts where they were very helpful and informative).

Anyways, I also own these speakers and have never had a single problem
with them. What exactly happened to make you think they blew up? Did
you turn the speakers up to loud and they blew? Unfortunately, the do no
longer make these, but you can try contacting the product replacement
department and see if they have any returned/refurbished (or even left
over) sets in storage or something. I would look for something like this:
