Little dent on subwoofer


NeedForSpeed73

Recommended Posts

Hi everybody. Another concerned owner: Today I was gain-matching my two Klipsch subs (SLP-100 and R-110) when the calibration mic fell from its tripod hitting the subwoofer (SPL-100) cone, causing a very little but sharp dent. Provided that I'm not concerned about performances (the sub, in REW, obviously measures the exact same frequency response it used to), what worries me is the overtime reliability and the possibility of that dent developing into a tear.

Should I try fix it? With the "tape trick" or pulling out the driver and pushing it from the inside.

 

Thanks in advance for your help

looks like its a superficial dent on the center dust cap so it will not affect the sound or get worse over time.  you can try to flatten it back out if you have access to it from the back side but tape wont do anything for that, its too small & sharp of a dent on a very rigid material.  best to just leave it be IMO.
