OMG. My little girl pushed in the dust cap on one of my Avantone Mixcubes. Your vacuum cleaner trick pulled it back to normal and you can barely tell it ever happened. It's about 99% back to what it was visually, and in terms of sound -- it's perfect. Thank you for this video. I was so depressed when it happened because I can't really afford to replace it right now.
I accidentally pushed in the dust cap on my subwoofer, and I tried the vacuum cleaner, hack and it worked! Thank you for saving my speaker looking ugly!
I tried the vacuum cleaner trick and it wouldn't work. I thought that maybe if I got the dust cap wet, it might help. I got it damp with a sponge and tried the vacuum again. It popped right out!
I have a Pioneer HPM 100 woofer coming to replace my broken one. Problem: the replacement woofers dust cap is a bit dented but is likely recoverable. I will try thin strips of tape and micro pressure to pull as many dimples out as I can. I don't care if it's NOT Absolutely perfect. I want it to be pretty at a glance. If someone stares at the dust cover though the cover mesh I don't care that they see my dimpled speaker cap. I have a pair of clear Lucite Promo Pioneer HPM-100 speakers in my living room with near perfect dust domes. I wont try the pin method unless my brother can find super thin surgical needles or pins. I was happy to hear you say a dented speaker dust cover does not affect sound quality.
I just tried method 2.5 and it worked for me. What is 2.5? I put multiple (5-6) layers of thin cut stripes of double sided tape, somewhat randomly, on the dust cap and poked with a needle into/between the layers of sticky tape and managed pull it out, without damaging anything. Worked better than expected. Thanks for the tipps.
If the speakers have their fronts on that does the best job at preventing the drivers from being damaged in the first place. If they do get dented you won't even notice if the fronts are on so I would personally leave it.
@@TechscrewsI have a speaker that has a pushed in dust cup and it didn’t affect the sound but it did affect the look but I don’t really care about it anyway but it’s fine it’s been like that for like five months anyway

thanks for so sweet feedback :) Good luck :)

Vacuum cleaner WORKED like A CHARM 🔥🔥🔥 Thank so much 👊🏽
Gaff tape works pretty good for pulling out the dust caps too.
for poly dust caps i recomend warming them up with hair dryer, before and after recovery.
thanks for advice.

Thanks for idea 👍
Personally I take the speaker out and blow air hard through the air hole at the back. this method works for even dust caps that are very stiff
Interesting idea. Using air from a compressor? If so what pressure did you find sufficient to the task?
Nice. Would this work for aluminium cones? Let's say warm them up with a heat gun and then blow air into the air vent port.
Informative with a hilarious narrative :)
Thanks a lot 🙂
Tape ( heavy duty )worked a dream - thanks 👍🏻
Thanks for feedback.

i ended up gluing the side of a glue stick (used for glue guns) at the dust cap and pulled up ant it worked like a charm!
With the puncture and pull method. Push in an L shaped wire. Work around the dent. No need to have multiple holes. Fill the legacy hole as shown. 🤓

Excellent, thanks for feedback 💯
The vacuum technique works very well if spritzed with a little water.
Brilliant video. Thank you very much
Usually i just use some strong tape it works great!
Oh you too lol
@@Random_4400 what XD?
did you just reply to yourself?
@@TristanSpeno I think they were expanding on their original post when they got to where the creator used tape but I could be wrong. 🤔
@@TristanSpeno no i replied to a reply which i guess got deleted.
I have used vacum cleaner with mixed results. Managed to fix mb-quart midrange driver dustcap, but sucked In whole diafragma of s30a tweeter.
Brilliant video, thanks !!
I have easily rectified using vaccum cleaner
THANK YOU!!! Duct tape worked!!!

wow techniques are good
Thank you
use self adhesive non slip furniture pads it’s strong enough to pop it back up and no residue left.
Personally, i prefer using the tape, it always success pulling the speaker's dust cap back.
I used very tacky electrician tape and it worked straight away. vacuum cleaner didn't because the inlet was smaller than the dent surface area. thanks
Thanks for feedback
Vaccum cleaner the best 🤣
All i can tell you is how i do it. I use masken tape. Put an end on the dust cap an GENTLY pull , it usually comes right out 😊.
I like painter's tape as it has no chance of leaving a residue behind.
I need to wire them with a 9v pig fence line to keep little fingers away. 🤔😅
Is 0:03 a Logitech z313 subwoofer
Do you have a tip for a smaller speaker bc my dust cap is from plastic and is very small
Auch! those injections hurt..
oh those little things that you push in
The stomp point of a needle
With some 10 sec. Glue
dont used neddle use vacoum cleaner
Also, what if you completely pushed the dust cap? What do you do at that point?
Forget about it, because it dont change sound.

Dust caps can be removed and replaced with new. See Simply Speakers.
You are so funny LOL
😮😮After rebuild use woodglue and water and Paint the dustcap 2 Times.
Thanks for tip
Vaccum cleaner worked the best
oddly nihilistic but thanks!
I take the vacuum cleaner
and result ?
I've always just used a piece of tape 👍
Bhai agar cap fat gaya ho to kay karen
Eng please
Vacuum cleaner with adjustable power settings………..hahaha
Why hahaha ? 😕
@@Techscrews yeah why hahaha 🙄
Or, just replace the cap. Costs $5 and takes 10 mins.
Its not so easy
terrible solutions...
which of the three ?
@@Techscrews They are all butchering.... Did you try sucking with vacum cleaner?
Use vacuum cleaner to suck it back
