Someone has depressed the tweeter dome of my center speaker of the RM7200 system.
How do I repair it? Do I need to replace the tweeter or can I pull it out somehow? will it sound the same again?
HELP!!

    Try some tape to pull it out first.
    Good luck

    looks like you have discovered one of the signs of tweeter abuse. In some states,it's considered a crime,punishable, with up to 3 years in jail.:eek: Hopefully,it's just cosmetic,,good luck.:)

    Whoa Lightman! :eek: Don't use the vacuum. Use the attachment sucking air with your mouth. If you use the vacuum, you risk detaching the cone altogether.

    Hey, I don't know how well versed he is audio wise. Just wanted to be safe, clarify and not allow him to ruin his tweeter.

    Me, pay attention? Ha! In your dreams............
