Replacing Speaker Cone - Tools Needed?

I am going to be replacing a damaged mid-range cone in my RTi A9.
The heads on the bolts holding the units in do not seem to be Hex wrench compatible,
as I thought.
How do I remove the bolts?
And will I need other tools to complete the job? (other than normal screwdrivers and such).

should be 9/32 hex/allen key/wrench -
Actually, it needed a Star T20 head to turn the bolts.
(9/32 is way too big; it looked like a much smaller hex, at first glance.)
The bolts came out easily, the units were easily unfastened from the clips on the wires.
I had to line up the surround with the unit (not a big deal, some balancing involved).
The new mid-range is in , and sounding fine. -
My bad it was off the top of my head... turns out that is the drill bit size I used on another project:rolleyes:
I did not know that they used torx head stuff. Most i have seen was small allen key.
Glad you got it.
