Well, the inevitable happened. My youngest son was playing around my speakers with a buddy of his, and accidently pushed in the dust cap on on 15in Eminence woofers. Any advice on how to get it back to its original symetrical shape? I tried a vacuum nozel up against the pushed in area - didn't help much. Thanks Jim

Tape, rolled backwards on you finger can also work well. If you destroy it, at least you can get an exact replacement from Eminence. If your speakers are in a place of public access in you house, you should really cover them. I sold audio for years and I can tell you that both children and adults, can resist pushing in dust caps and tweeter domes. It's something that's hardwired into us! Dave

I've had good luck using the tape method. Just make sure you take a little of the sticky off if the tape is real tacky.
