Fix a Blown Klipsch Speaker
Klipsch speakers are a trusted brand and offer great sound quality, but they are not indestructible. From time to time, you may find yourself dealing with a blown speaker, which is typically caused by a hole in the speaker cone. You will want to replace with a whole new cone. The process if fairly easy with the right tools.
Instructions
1. Use a screwdriver to take out the screws holding your speaker casing on and remove the casing. Take out the speaker and use a knife to cut completely around the blown cone. Pull the old cone off the speaker and throw it away.
2. Remove the old gasket by sticking the blade of your utility knife between the inside of the speaker and the gasket.
3. Take your knife and use it to carefully scrape the glue off of the frame of the speaker. For really hard spots, use some glue solvent and a cloth.
4. Put some glue on the speaker frame and slide the new speaker cone down on top of the speaker frame covered in glue. Give the glue 24 hours to dry.
5. Solder all of the speaker wires to the terminals on the back of the actual speaker. Stick the speaker back in the speaker casing and screw the casing securely back on.
