Hello.
I have old KRK E8 Expose monitors and look for Focal TC120K tweeters replacement. It seems to be quite unreal to find the originals in 2016.
And the official KRK answer:
Unfortunately, the Focal drivers are the only suitable replacements for the Expose E8. They are proprietary to Focal and we had no way to manufacture them after Focal stopped supplying replacements.
The E8T monitor is voiced for a Titanium Tweeter (TWTK00008) and the previous E8 monitor is voiced for a Kevlar Tweeter (TWTK00005). Each tweeter’s frequency response is incompatible with the crossover tuning of the other model.
I learned about Visaton KE25SC and Seas Millenium in other theads about TC120 here. Maybe they will sound worthily with KRK E8 too? Maybe you know where to find those kevlar Focals if not?
Thank you in advance.

What happened to Focal? Rotted surround?

Thank you for your answers, contacts and recommendations!
There is only one tweeter left in E8x, another one is missing completely. So I need to get a pair.
Now I think I'll try new titanium Focals TC120TIW as a replacement.
