Anyone have info on Chario?

In my bad luck or stupidity I have blown a woofer driver in my Chario Academy 1's... (way out of warranty) neither my dealer nor his distributor has been able to get Chario to return e-mails or fax's.. does anyone know if Chario is having problems or went out of business??
The driver is a 5" focal driver especially made for Chario.
Anyone have any Ideas?
