Wow, nice!

How's the sound quality compared to older pressings?

2016 WYWH re-issue

More good news! Paradigm called yesterday, the driver rebuilds are done. Final cost is $300 + $22.50 for return shipping. Looks like I'm about a week away from getting my speaker back together - I can't wait! I absolutely love my Studio 100's, they have a warm, full sound that's hard to find nowadays - and to me, they're irreplaceable.

Next will be to get the Parasound amp going again; or go back to my original plan and just get a decent receiver.

Well, good news - the speakers were shipped out today.    They say it could take four to six weeks to rebuild the speakers and ship them back. In the meantime, I plan on calling Parasound to discuss what they can do to help me get the HCA-2205 amp back up and running. The amp weighs almost 90 pounds, so shipping it out for repair is going to cost quite a bit of money.   

I'm debating whether to put both repaired drivers in one speaker, or split them up - one original and one repaired driver per speaker to even out the possible audible difference (if any). What do you guys think?

I received a quick reply back from Paradigm - they don't make the drivers anymore, nor do they have any 'old stock' lying around; but they can rebuild the drivers back to factory specifications if I send them in. 

Here's a couple pictures of the disassembly of my speaker. The crossover looks fine - no exploded caps or burn marks on the inductor.
