My first "new" speaker purchase was from a department store. They had a little "sound room" in the back, and there set a pair of Scott speakers with 15" woofers. Someone thought it would be entertaining to punch their fist through one of the woofers. The department store took the only reasonable option for them and marked them down to a ridiculously low price. I borrowed my dad's Corvair work van and home they went.
I used my sister's clear fingernail polish to "temporarily" put the cone back together.
Expecting a "rapid disassembly" I was surprised they made it thru the Beatles AND The Dave Clark 5. Years later, they were too big to todt off to the college dorm, so I sold them. With a functioning, but esthetically challenged, 15" woofer.
