Upon moving I discovered that the tweeter on my CS400 has become slightly pushed in. Is there any way to restore it to its original form? Further, will this seriously effect the sound quality?

    Gentle suction should solve your problem.

    How would I do that, a vaccum is probably too much?

    I did it with a shop vac. I put my hand around the end of the hose and slowly brought it closer to the tweeter. If I remember correctly, it was about a inch or two away when it popped out. You could also try to pop it out by pressing gently around the indented area with your fingers. You won't harm the tweeter by touching it.

    I was so careful I just felt sick about it, as you can well imagine.
