My speaker fell over during a party and now it sounds 'off' and I don't know if it's possible to fix it or not. What do you think?

I think that it depends on how badly your speaker is broken. I know that generally blown speakers can be repaired, but I'm not an expert on the issue.

Hi, I'd recommend taking your speaker to someone who could fix it or back to where you purchased it from. If you had a warranty on it, maybe you can get your money back?

If there's obvious damage like a cracked case or a dent to the cone you might be able to get a replacement part. Otherwise I'd suggest taking it to a professional to have a look at or just replacing it if it was a cheap speaker. Is it still under warranty?

It's no longer under warranty, that's why I was worried. I think I will take your advice and have a professional look it over. Hopefully it makes sense to fix it rather than having to buy a new one.

As far as I know, a warranty never caters for repairs resulting from human fault. I think it will be helpful if you approached someone else to repair it for you. It might be something that can easily be fixed.
