Are the Eosones considered a "vintage" Polk product?

I have a tiny dent in the 1 x .75"(19mm) titanium dome tweeter
in one of my Eosone RSF 600 speakers,
Overall Frequency 35Hz - 22kHz
Response 40W min, 175W max 25 - 175W (8? rating)
Sensitivity 88dB
Driver Complement
1 x .75"(19mm) titanium dome tweeter
1 x .5"(12mm) polycarbonate tweeter
2 x 4"(100mm) midranges
2 x 8"(200mm) woofers
Crossover
front elements: 650Hz, 4.8kHz
rear elements 4.7kHz
My question is two-fold... does it effect overall sound and what would be a good replacement ( I would replace it on both speakers if original can not be found).

If it's only a tiny dent I wouldn't lose sleep.
They were made by Polk, making them "vintage" Polk. There are a ton of vintage, pre-owned Polk speakers out there to be had. Eosone are a rarity. -
I've had a number of older Polk speakers with tri lam dome tweets where they had been dented or even pushed in all the way. I have compared them to mint tweeters and really couldn't hear a difference. unless u think.it sounds worse then the other speaker I wouldn't worry about it.

Thanks for the replys. I have the Eosone RSF 600s, 2 Eosone RSR350 surrounds, and the matching center channel, with a Shu 12" sub to fill in the bass a little. I am not an audiophile but I think they sound pretty darn good.
