"Dented tweeters — Does not affect sound "


Can we all agree to stop posting this crap in speaker ads?

Your toddlers poking at your speakers with a crayon, lego, toy hammer, etc. most certainly affects the sound and you should expect to take a financial hit because of it. If a dealer fed you that line of BS, you'd set about gathering angry hordes of audiophiles with torches and pitchforks.

Rant over. I feel better.

I know a lot of driver manufacterers use dust caps for dispersion. If the dust cap is missing, dented, crinkled or wrinkled, it will affect the sound.

Yakbob,

Your going to love a recent ad for a pair of Martin Logan Vantage that say
"Great condition other than the crack in the corner of one"

I don't like dented speakers....if they make an audible difference or not it still bothers me. You can sometimes straighten the dent by using tape or a pin to pull out the dent.. I would either send the speaker for repair or replace the driver myself. Things like that bother me.
