this is little embarassing!

i was just installing my new RTI A9 and when removing the connector plastic cover (to remove the central plastic cap) in order to use banana plugs, the red cover felt into the lower cavity within the speaker, the speaker is too big to wiggle, how i can have an access in order to remove it from the inside of the speaker? i am affraid that it starts ruttling inside.

thanks!

    How about a vacuum cleaner. If its too far in get a small diameter hose and tape it to the end of the nozzle, feed it into the port and Walla.........or remove one of the drivers and stick your hand in.

    thanks for the vaccum tip.

    i unscrewed the front vent and after sometime i was able to suck the cap.

    thanks again, simple and effective.

    What is ruttling?
