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.

I dented the dome on one of my Seas metal dome tweeters. I removed the tweeter baffle and rubbed out the dent from behind with a Popsicle stick that had soaked in water for a while to make it softer. The dent is still slightly noticeable at very close inspection, but appears just fine from a distance. A soft dome should be just as easy, just forget the water on the stick.

BTW, are you interested in selling your F-44 preamp?
