Phoenix Gold Phorum

Okay well went out to the store earlier to pick up madden 07 for the 360...

and the one time I have the grilles off my kicks my girl friend has to stick her stupid long heels and hit the dust cap of the Scan Speak 12m and she dented it in .

Shes not allowed in my car ever again....


Any how I was able to pop all of it back into place besides one little like 1 cm indent and I cant get it back into place.


Any way I can fix it guys? Please help a brother out....


This may call for the 12ms to move inside, god damn one thing after another.

Hmmm... on subwoofers I used sticky material like gorilla snot or sound deadening mat to adhere to the surface, then I pulled it out very quickly. With your paper cones you will have to be a lot more careful however.

if you have a shop vac, putting the hose over the code might push it out.


tell here she has to buy you a new set. put her on the street until she saves up.

Just go lube up her B.O.B. with vicks vapor rub and tell her she cut off "completely" until she replaces your speaker and she might be in for a rude surprise if she doesn't adhere to being cut off.

hmmm tape sounds scary w/ that driver....

Shop vac just maybe...just maybe.


No chance of here buying a new one sadly. Any other things I could try? Like maybe stick up the pole vent?

normally id laugh but right now sorry I just cant...women killing 220 speaker = not to happy

If you can't get it, leave it as is... I'll bet you can't tell the difference. And for god's sake keep the damn grilles on.

I'm actually somewhat concerned about this happening myself but I think the bigger problem with my kicks is going to be winter shit (snow, rocks, ice, water) falling through the grilles...

i could try and dig up some more closed octane grills for you.....
i will just throw them in there and if they work, then super

If it has tits or tires it'll give you troubles. Now which is more important a warm hole or a speaker?

Yeah, but how do those high heels look when she's doing the "look back" or the "squat"?

I have this stuff called "Goop". It's like a clear silicon gel that stays flexible when dry. I use it everywhere. I just used it to adhere plastic clips directly to glass for a power window assembly in a car. It's 20 below here right now and the Goop is flexible and strong. Perhaps something along these lines, thinly applied, will repair the puncture. Back in the day, we used nail polish.

dont they keep the dust out just as well when they're dented?

paper cone..

See you lot all gave me a hard time over my grilles for my 3.5" clifs without even realising why I had done it.

Sure it dont look designer but it stops some stupid slapper sticking her fishy fingers in there.

Fucking hell Errin mang don't make us choose !

Thats probably THE toughest question for a man to answer right there.

all warm holes unfourtuanlty have built in speakers further north. speakers that do not turn off

you need this..........

Brandon, can you post a pic of the damage? Might give us a better idea of how to fix it.

we used to take the smallest [and thinnest] needle we could find, heat is, bend it, and like a surgeon does, carefully bend it inside the dustcap, at precisely the center of the dent, then gently pull.
works fine with most materials. the hole in a paper cone, can be filled by a very tiny drop of wood-glue, and coloured in if necessary.
anyway, good luck, and if it doesn't work, put the needle in your girlfriend somewhere where it hurts.
