Dented Tweeter?


Hello All,
I have a pair of 2000 cherry Hales Design Group Revelation 3s. Unfortunatly during shipping one of the tweeters has a small dent in it less than 1/2 cm. I can't tell audibly that there is a problem, but I have to think the dent causes some dispersion problems. Since Hales Design are out of business, does anyone have any suggestions as to the condition of the tweeter, replacing the tweeter or info on Hales drivers. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If it is a Vifa tweeter-- Most have replacable diaphragms. You should be able to disassemble the tweeter and just gently push the dome back out and reassemble the driver.
Madisound or Parts Express have very good websites. You can match up the driver by its dimensions on them and if it says a replacement diaphragm is available, you know your in business to try to repair it using the above methods or worst case, replace it. Take Care, Aaron
