Some of the replacement woofers such as the ones from Madisound or Simply Speakers may be a match. But those generics from Parts Express won't be.
Google also found some here but the bargains might be ones that need foam you replace yourself. Right now there appear to be two auctions like that: http://www.ebay.com/bhp/advent-woofer
I'd be similarly cautious about swapping in any non-identical tweeter. Concentrate on original and used for these Advents, not something that just fits in the cabinet. That's a waste of time and money, unless all you care about is the "look" of the thing. As it is, some low-cost modern speakers will improve upon these classics in some key areas.
As for the crossover, you can build those yourself with a soldering iron and the individual replacement caps and resistors and actually create a better (more accurate) one than the original.
