Seeking replacement option for Triangle Antal EZ woofer (damaged)

Hi Audiogon!

New to these forums, but figured I'd give this a shot. I have a pair of Triangle Antal EZ (non-anniversary edition) with one damaged woofer I'm looking to replace. If it were just an aesthetic thing I'd just live with it but during low or bassier sections I do actually hear it crackling, so I've unhooked the one faulty woofer for now. 

I tried to follow this up through the dealer I purchased with but they've gone a bit dark on communicating a solution/replacement/etc. The four woofers on these towers are 6" and the sensitivity is 92db. The actual issue is, a child pushed in the cone and now it's in there for good (and the crackling is maddening). 

Any help would be appreciated - thanks! :)

If you can't find a drop-in replacement and you want to have the original driver repaired, reach out to Millersound - millersound.net. They would likely be able to repair the driver at a reasonable price.

I appreciate that, reubent!

I have a follow up call today with someone local to me who is a Triangle dealer. If that doesn't lead to a pot of gold, I'm happy to have this one repaired (it's really just a pushed in cone, and it is otherwise fine). 

Thanks again,
Joe

You're talking about the dust cover in the center? Use a vacuum cleaner an have your finger on the switch, and set the  "vent", open on the hose a bit.

OR use a piece of tape, I've never seen one I couldn't pull out or repair.
Even cracked, I've repaired them with nail polish, and or silicone.
Also pretty easy to replace just the dust cover. You have to get a size that will work.. 

The noise, usually means something is touching. Pushing in the dust cover? Not sure why it would make noise. Not usually a problem, other than looking bad. It can offer distortion, but I'd doubt I could hear the difference.. Maybe, but I'd doubt it..
