Dented Tweeter?


Hello All,
I have a pair of 2000 cherry Hales Design Group Revelation 3s. Unfortunatly during shipping one of the tweeters has a small dent in it less than 1/2 cm. I can't tell audibly that there is a problem, but I have to think the dent causes some dispersion problems. Since Hales Design are out of business, does anyone have any suggestions as to the condition of the tweeter, replacing the tweeter or info on Hales drivers. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks everyone for the advice. However tempting the sucking method is, it may not work on the metal tweeter. I removed the tweeter last night and it was a VIFA D25AG-35 1" dome w/ 6 ohm capability. I did try and use tape before I made the post, but it would not remove all the dents. I haven't tried to rub out the tweeter yet, but Madisound had a drop in replacement for $28.95. Not bad and the tweeter was very easy to remove. Should I buy two, so the tweeters can age togeter, or is burn in more noticable on the midrange and woofer? From what I have read, the Revelation 3s have off the shelf Vifa Drivers (at least for the 4 1/2" and the 1" drivers. Not sure about the woofer. This seems to be good news since the company is no longer and the speakers sound to good to replace. Thanks again for all the advice.

Scoot that's good news. Considering the low-ish cost, why not replace both tweet's & retain the old one as a spare for possible future replacement needs? Or at least buy one spare while they're still available - cheap insurance.
I have a dented metal dome Thiel 2 2. The manufacturer said they have done tests and unless the dome actually hits the magnet, they don't sound worse.

That seems counter intuitive, but I haven't notice a difference.

Nevertheless, I bought a new tweeter anyway so that when I sell them I won't have to deal with that issue.

Years ago, my luvable thug of a godson dented the dustcap on the lf driver of a KEF 103. I called KEF to order a replacement. Their advice: Bend the tip of a needle to 90 degrees. Gently pierce the dust cap near the center of the dent and, using the needle as a hook, pop it out. Then put a tiny drop of superglue over the needle hole.

Worked perfectly. Might not work for a metal tweeter but something to keep in mind for other....events.
