Tweeter Dome Puncture


Techie question. I was looking at some loudspeakers that I was going to buy (used from a private party) when I noticed a small, pin-hole sized puncture on the dome of one of the tweeters. Is this something that can be easily fixed--is a fix worth it for a pair of used speakers for which I will probably pay $500? Does the dome integral to the design of the tweeter, or is it more of a cover? Thanks!

Hello,
It is possible that the dustcap was dented in the past, and the method used to "pull" the dent out was to take a pin or needdle and insert it into the center of the dent, angle it down, and gently pull upwards to pop the dent out.
The pinhole you see could be the result of that? Just a thought! As stated above, sound quality should not be affected enough to be audible.
Thanks!
