MY TANNOY M3 FLOOR STANDING SPEAKER has damaged card dome on main bass speaker and small treble speaker is?

concave in centre,sound rattles as a result,is there anything i can do to repair,as they were very expensive,also,has this happened as a result of playing too loud{not by me i might add)as the black grill is allways on the speaker.

1. This was not caused by playing too laud. Smeone bumped into the grill.You may be able to pull out the dent in the speapers by carfuly putting a piece of tape on them and gently pulling. Use a very sticky tape. The rattle though is not likely to be from a dent in the dust cap of the woofer. A dent there is not usually audible. More probable causes are a torn surround, the folded flexible ring that holds the cone to the frame. That will require a re-cone job. Cheaper than a new speaker. Could also be that the speaker was knocked out of alignment in the magnet. I would recomend a new driver if Tannoy will sell one.
2. Charles is correct. You can get your speakers repaired at Orange county Speaker Repair. They also sell repair kits. http://www.speakerrepair.com/index.html
3. You can pick up a brand new pair of Mercury M3's for less than £100 nowadays. They were never "very expensive" to begin with, though (the suggested retail was £250) - Tannoy's "very expensive" speakers sell for over £20,000 a pair... However, Tannoy do keep a good stock of spares. You should be able to pick up a new replacement driver for about £25.
