ok i had to remove this one screw because the others didnt line up. so i was pushing because other wise the power drill would not grip. then the screw started twisting in the poly fil and foam liner and it whent crooked throwing the drill off and it hit the speaker i have sealed off the incloser that it is in so i think that when it moves air must be forced threw there.

how could i fix this. a little silicone or somthing?
btw its the back speaker

 

Not the end of the world.

The hole is small and doesn't "short" the speaker's sound waves. A bit of leakage like this is anyoying more than audible. If there's enough gasket left on either side of the hole you might try a bit of "super glue" with a toothpick. If the hole runs from the edge to the cone the super glue is going to rip apart so try the same toothpick treatment with Silcone II kitchen glue.

If you bought them from Circuit City and bought the extended warranty ... it's suppose to cover such damage - at least that's what they told me.

 

nope, ebay. i its not from edge to edge but i still dont like how hard super glue dries. so i think ill try some of that sillicone II. thanks i feel much better now.

edit: would liquid nails be ok? iv got some of that just siting around.

 

you want something to put on there with equally as much compliance as the surround itself ... I would suggest an inner-tube patch

In a sealed box, this hole is pretty bad .. as you box is no longer technically sealed .. so I would fix it.

Of all things to do, please dont use Liquid Nails

 

i used some silicone II it matched color wise (it comes in like all the colors of the rainbow) and seamed that it was kinda squishy so thats good. ill check tomorrow when its supose to be 100% cured. and see how its going..

 

Ka-BOOM!!!
