View this Thread in Original format

So I purchased a set of monitors on ebay and one of the monitors have a tweeter that was dented (pushed in)

what would you guys recommended to pop it back out?




here is a picture of the tweeter :eyespop:

flutlicht junky
mouth or possibly vacumn cleaner. Possibly something like blue tack VERY gently applied?
System101
try a vacuum at a lower speed?

it may be quite a stupid idea.. not sure if it will negatively affect the tweeter but it should work :eyespop:
jey
my main bass tweater was dented in by my mum when polishing lol

i set my hover to low suckion put it to it and i worked a treat!

u may need to remove the plastic ring that protects urs!

Scotch tape helps, take a small strip put it on the tweater and pull it of, do it a couple of times and it will be back to normal.

yeah, something sticky... wrap it on the tip of your finger and just slowly bring it back to form.

my dog put his nose on my sub once and it dented and i thought he ruined it... nope, a lil duct tape and it was back :)

Yeah, though I feel like a tweater would be a tad more sensitive...

I mean, this is a precision device here. My opinion would be that it's completely f*cked. personally, I'd replace it.
