Did I Just Break My KLF-20 10" Woofer

[Hamilton]

So I'm in the process of taking apart my KLF-20 speakers for new crossovers and to reglue the cabinets.  During this process I notice that one of the woofers has something loose trapped inside!  Was exploring the back of the woofer cylinder with my finger and it definitely "opened" up into the cavity (voice coil area?) and managed to get a super small piece of solder out, about the size of kosher salt.  

 

Did I just brick my woofer?  Don't have the components now to test while they transit to Crites for the crossovers.

You don't need the crossover to test your woofer. Connect the speaker leads directly to the woofer. It will be fed a full-range signal but that's not going to blow your woofer. You'll better hear the sound if you reinstall the woofer in the cabinet.

OK I will do this after I glue some of these panels!  Was thinking of doing this but the full range audio going to the woofer had me pause after my already worrisome mishap

Sending a full range signal to a tweeter can damage it, but woofers have no problem receiving a full range signal, because the mid and high signals are relatively faint.
