Speaker Dimple


One of my soft dome tweeters has a dimple in it, doesn't really effect the sound as fas as I can tell, but still I wonder if there is a safe way to pop the dimple out?

I've used the tape and vacuum methods over the years. For me, vacuum was easiest. As Elizabeth stated, just get close, don't touch the speaker dome. Use a guard of some type or rest your arm against the face of the speaker, hold the vacuum nozzle firmly in both hands and gently move the nozzle toward the dome. Don't get too close or you are going to have difficulty controlling the nozzle and you may end up causing more damage that you originally had on the dome!

BTW, it might help for you to practice first without the vacuum turned on. You can also just practice on any other surface with the vacuum tunred on so you will know at what distance the vacuum pressure becomes difficult to control.

Enjoy,
