So glad your technician was able to find the problem! I kind of thought it was that coil - Even though it is attached with silicon, it is the one most likely to shift and push a wire into a PCB trace. I don't see it as often in domestic shipments as I do international. And as much padding as I surround the crossovers with, sometimes they still take a hit I guess.

As for the dust cap, you might see if you can find a shop that recones drivers and can replace that dust cap. I know a shop here that will do it for next to nothing and the guy does great work. You can't even tell the dust cap has been replaced after he's done. That's not much help to you in Denmark, but if there's a shop there that can do it, it's well worth the time and money.

About bass, you're right that it's a little lean without subs. They're great at midbass and midrange but the deepest bass extension is best served with subs. Two subs at opposite corners setup as a Welti multisub configuration works great. You get deep bass extension and modal smoothing at the same time.
