Hi Gang. Elementary question perhaps, is the felt dot over the magnet in the speaker cone on most radios simply there to just protect magnet from picking up filings metal junk, etc..... Is there any other function it performs? Just wondering if it would harm a speaker to play without the felt? Thanks for any info.
