At $100 each it is just not practical to do so. The price quoted
above is purely marketing. The oem drivers are mass-production
below-average quality drivers.

We all know that. But you pays yer money and makes yer choice.

Absolutely, the real question though is if he knew that, why the hell
did he buy them in the first place?

No highs, no lows, it must be Bose !

Yes, but what still puzzles me is that the OP probably paid a silly figure
for the speakers in the fist place, then worries that the cost of a
replacement driver is also overpriced considering the quality. (or lack
thereof)
It is my experience that overpriced goods naturally have overpriced spare
parts too.

I don't have that much experience of overpriced *anything* but I do note that
certain brands of PC that sell on their market image such as Compaq used to and
HP and even Dell now also tend to have some non-standard and overpriced service
parts.
